Creative! Queer!! Autistic!!!<p>Pete may be the most complex character in the film.</p><p>I was uncomfortable with him at first, because he’s TOO MUCH, and when you realize where this story is going, his actions take on a predatory aspect.</p><p>BUT… it is clear that Pete is the character the director most identifies with. We seem to be seeing the story through his eyes. Reggie may be closest to a traditional protagonist, but Pete - and the actor, <a href="https://neurodifferent.me/tags/DudleySutton" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DudleySutton</span></a> - show an earnest vulnerability, a yearning for connection, that prevents him from coming across as a villain.</p><p>Pete, as obnoxious as he is, as manipulative as he is, is heartbreaking.<br>I can easily imagine what he saw as his future: living with Reggie, supporting his Grandmother, building a future of their own, riding motorcycles together, happily ever after.</p><p>… and he thought he was just moments away from his dreams coming true.</p><p><a href="https://neurodifferent.me/tags/TheLeatherBoys" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TheLeatherBoys</span></a> <a href="https://neurodifferent.me/tags/LGBTQ" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LGBTQ</span></a> <a href="https://neurodifferent.me/tags/ColinCampbell" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ColinCampbell</span></a></p>
Creative! Queer!! Autistic!!!<p>Everyone involved with this film is firing on all cylinders: the direction, the cinematography, writing, cast, all perfection.</p><p><a href="https://neurodifferent.me/tags/RitaTushingham" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RitaTushingham</span></a> is so fun to watch; she is ALL OVER the frame, back and forth in the foreground and background; she makes you feel you’re in a cage with her. She’s constantly mugging into the camera in a way that makes it seem like she’s going to become a full-on comic character at any moment, but Tush doesn’t go there. Dot is ridiculous, but she’s never a joke.</p><p>… or if she is, she’s a sad one.</p><p><a href="https://neurodifferent.me/tags/TheLeatherBoys" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TheLeatherBoys</span></a> <a href="https://neurodifferent.me/tags/LGBTQ" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LGBTQ</span></a> <a href="https://neurodifferent.me/tags/ColinCampbell" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ColinCampbell</span></a> <a href="https://neurodifferent.me/tags/DudleySutton" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DudleySutton</span></a></p>
