I was getting worried the breeder aspect of Julianne Moore and Annette Bening’s lesbian family dramedy The Kids Are All Right would get buried as everyone focused on two women of a certain age sharing a home together! Whew, USA Today saves the day: “Mark Ruffalo and Julianne Moore went from friends of three years to lovers in the intimate family drama The Kids Are All Right. And ample comic weirdness ensued. ‘People are like, ‘How does Julianne Moore look naked?’ I don’t know. She was pressed up against me the whole time. I couldn’t look at her,’ Ruffalo says as Moore howls with laughter beside him. ‘OK, we’re naked. That’s horrible for a little while. After a while, we’re naked and you’re like at a nudist beach. And the rest of it is like, you’re wrestling nude …’ Concludes Moore: ‘… with a lot of eye contact.’”
Great movie! Bening & Moore don’t hit a single false note as actors.We saw it with our favorite lesbian couple and they loved it too. This is movie you could take your parents to, well unless they’re fundies.
BTW: Cholodenko’s “Laurel Canyon” is another must-see. You get to see Frances McDormand (sp?) in leather pants, Christian Bale shirtless, and the final scene with the swimming pool is genius.

Why is it every popular (keyword) movie with gay themes have to be tempered with a hetero sex scene? Brokeback Mountain anyone?
I’m not saying its not a good movie or there is anything wrong with the story, i’m just seeing a pattern where the only gay movies that get any attention are the ones that soothe the poor heterosexuals with some vag/penis action. I don’t care if it’s in the name of progressive fluid sexuality.
It’s damn irritating. Have some gay sex and leave it at that hollywood!
