The Robinson Film Center will host P.A.C.E.'s Northwest Louisiana Gay and Lesbian Film Festival Sept. 11-17.
The marquee event is an opening night reception and screening of "Sordid Lives" (sold out), for which actor Leslie Jordan will be the special guest. That's a pretty big deal for a locally organized fest.
The festival's content is pretty varied, too: documentaries about a kickboxer who has a secret ("Beautiful Boxer") and a relationship between a writer and an artist ("Chris & Don: A Love Story"); and features about Shakespearean teen love ("Were the World Mine"), white trash Texans ("Sordid Lives"), getting rid of a body ("Drool"), and a change in wedding plans ("I Can't Think Straight").

I'm really looking forward to this event.
Long ago, I saw The Living End by Greg Araki at a Centenary Film Society showing and my life was changed forever. I realized I could make the movies I wanted to see! I didn't have to make Hollywood movies - and I didn't have to make hetero movies.
I wonder whose life will be changed this time.
