Fancy Movie Time #27: My Own Private Idaho (1991)

On this episode of Fancy Movie Time with Brain and A.J., the Fancy Lads conquer their narcolepsy and hit the mean streets of Portland as they cover Gus Van Sant's gay odyssey: My Own Private Idaho. Do the stellar performances and Shakespearean pizazz make it a Fancy Feast? Or does its meandering plot and limited bag of tricks make it a Failure to Fancy? One thing's for sure: Keanu Reeves seems like a pretty swell guy!

Next Month: Edward II (1991)

Please do an episode, either on here or on the main feed about that version of much ado about nothing. It is a very special movie to me and I love it. I would love to hear your potentially funny opinions.

If you’re looking at queer filmmakers I would love a Kenneth Anger fmt

Narcoleptic here. Just started the episode. Will report back at the end with my woke thoughts. Get it? Woke?

If you’re looking at adaptive Shakespeare “10 Things I Hate About You” is up there. Would really love a breakdown by you guys

All I know about this film is that it's where Jim Caviezel got his start, and I want to use this opportunity to promote an episode of The Dollop about him that dropped onto their feed in the last few weeks

The island you're thinking of is Tangier Island, VA.

Maybe I'm the only person on earth who defends Gus Van Sant's Psycho as an experimental Brechtian masterpiece
