Audience Member An unexpected delight. Some of it bordered on soap opera, but the earnest performances elevated it to make it a pleasure to watch. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Audience Member You have to see it! It's from 2012, and the poster is everywhere in the internet... It's a really good and emotional movie. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Audience Member Miguel Ferrari's film received a very limited release in the US and then got lost in DVD/VOD under the weaker title, My Straight Son. Within the context of the current state of Venezuelan cinema, this movie is a pretty bold move. It is a positive view of LGBT community in the form of "drama-dy" -- the problem is that it feels like something I would have seen in the 1990's. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review Audience Member Dramática, divertida y novedosa dentro de su contexto. Contiene una temática fenomenal, flamante e incluso pertinente en el contexto venezolano, de acuerdo a la actualidad. Las actuaciones fueron fabulosas, creibles y sinceras, fenomal selección de reparto. Y finalmente tiene un ritmo sólido, en ningún momento desfallece. Eso por el lado bueno. Por el lado malo puede caer un poco en cliché y en ciertas tomas o recursos cinematográficos ya gastados. Sin embargo, si bien el vehículo no es el más adecuando el mensaje y la sustancia aún así lo compensan con creces. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review Audience Member Blue and Not So Pink (Azul y no Tan Rosa) tells the story Diego (Guillermo García) a photographer living the best time of his life with his partner Fabrizio (Sócrates Serrano) a respected doctor. Diego have a turbulent past, when he was younger he had a kid Armando (Nacho Montes) with his high school sweetheart, Armando and his mother live in Spain. After tragic events of an homophobic attack that ends Fabrizio in coma, Diego is forced to recover the lost time with Armando, this will become a intense relationship of discovering and learning. Diego's best friend is a drag queen by the name Delirio del Rio played by Hilda Abrahamz who bring sense to the story with gay jokes and spicing up some of the situations that happen on the film. Miguel Ferrari directs this film about very important social issues: homophobic violence, homosexuality, transsexualism and domestic violence. "Blue and Not So Pink" becomes another great film about tolerance and respect of every human being no matter their sexual orientation. In a way the film is powerful, but the story is not new. Some of the movie have reminiscence to the Australian film "Priscilla Queen of the Desert". Where a group of drag queens embarked themselves into a road trip to from Sidney to the great outback. Anthony Belrose (Hugo Weaving) have a lost child like in "Blue and Not So Pink" have a great friend drag queen as well, Adam Whitely/Felicia Jollygoodfellow (Guy Pierce) which also reminds me to Delirio del Rio played by Hilda Abrahamz. Besides "Blue and Not So Pink" film doesn't have a road trip as a main plot for the film, it offers one near the end of the movie. The besides this similarity both films offer strong messages about tolerance against homophobic practice.
