Surely its been a long few days at work and home. Catching up on pending chores never seem to end… but its Thursday evening and the weekend is just around the corner and been out a few nights soaking up every gay movie in town given the Mardi Gras Film Festival is on. So I can’t really complaint.

Most of these movies are non-mainstream and wouldn’t quite whet the appetite of regular ‘Hollywood slapstick’ watchers. These are mostly, in some form associated to people’s real lives — presented, written, or directed by luminaries across the globe in a somewhat non-heterosexual theme. While I can’t wait for the weekend to begin, I’m also dying to see tonight’s larger than life character Truman Capote’s — ‘Infamous‘ which is being premiered as the closing night film for the Mardi Gras Film Festival.

At last! The other Capote film. This new take on gay author Truman Capote was made at the same time as last year’s hailed Capote, but was held back because it dealt with the same real-life characters. Infamous however, delves bravely where Capote was too scared to go – directly into the subject of Truman Capote’s homosexuality. Infamous is the greatest Closing Night extravaganza that will not disappoint.
