It's about her son dying of AIDS, btw.

The part where Close asks her son something about if he really loved his companion and he says yes. And she says "I'm glad you had that in your life" has always stayed with me. Beautiful film.

R2 omg, yes! It's a short film, too. It clocks at around an hour. The music is beautiful and the performances are all wonderful.
It's a tender film.

I actually just started watching it again. That opening music always draws me in.

Let us know what you think, R5.
It puts me in this tranquil, meditative state. I really love it.

It got 101% on The Treacle Meter. And you watch a AIDS Dying movie over and over and think its beautiful? DAFUQ is wrong with you people.

Calm down, R7. Have you watched it? It's very subtle and tranquil. Watch it.

I'm at the "Did you love? Were you loved in return?" scene.

I found it too small, twee and unfocused. Not even there there, for me.

It's always sounded too low key and ponderously "prestigious" for me.
No desire to see it.

r12 Watch it. It's very good.

A film of raw, subtle power.

Robert Sean Leonard was even more dreamy than usual.

I remember In the Gloaming as being just OK.
When it comes to AIDS movies, I prefer Longtime Companion, An Early Frost or even Andre's Mother.
Or better yet Parting Glances, since the PWA's story is interwoven in the overall narrative of the film.

Men sure wore their clothes baggy back then. I had that shaggy hairdo on RSL too. I’ve never seen anything else branded a “HBO NYC” production.

I can't believe this isn't on DVD.
It's my favorite performance by G.

Be sure the DVD you buy is compatible with where you live.

R27 You can reprogramme most region specific DVD players. Google how to do it. 3 or 4 basic steps with the remote.
