Film report (Stonewall)


Main characters: Matty Dean, a young man, who is gay, he is the lover of LaMiranda. LaMiranda, a man who is gay too, he likes to dress up himself as a woman.

Setting/time: The movie takes place in New York in the Sixties.

Plot:
At first Matty Dean comes to New York, there he gets to know LaMiranda and a group of homosexuals. The homosexuals have got a meeting point, it's a bar for gay people. While they are dancing and drinking, the police arrives. They arrest the whole homosexual group. After that Matty Dean and LaMiranda go to LaMiranda's place, there Matty Dean tells his story, why he is an homosexual. Matty Dean tries to help the homosexuals, he makes attempts with other homosexuals. LaMiranda isn't happy about that. While they make demonstrations and attempts, Matty gets to know a man. Matty and the man have a holiday at an island. The man tells Matty, that the island is a paradise for gay guys. But it isn't, because the police often comes to the beach and so Matty thinks, that it's the same as in New York, because in New York they have got explicit clothes instructions. When Matty comes back to Big Apple, he and his gay friends make a demonstration, they want more rights for homosexuals. In the end the police arrives and they try to stop the demonstrations with a lot of brutality.

Personal Comment:
I find this movie very interesting, because it describes the situation of the homosexuals in the Sixties. I believe the Matty Dean is a cool guy, because he fights for the homosexuals. LaMiranda, feels like a lady, she behaves like a lady, she could be a lady, but she is a man. In this movie most of the gay people dress up themselves as women, I don't know why, because Matty doesn't do this. The movie was very difficult to understand, because there were lots of vocabularies inside, which I've never heard before.
