I mean, when the sexiest scene in the movie involves penetrating a small fruit you know things could be a bit hotter.
Many gay films, including Call Me, seem skittish when they get to the inevitable sex scene, creating a huge double standard as opposite sex gets more explicit by the year.
Ironically, latter-day queer classics like Call Me or Brokeback Mountain get their own share of criticism from queer audiences– for not having enough gay sex or for the sex not being graphic or real enough. With the 17-year-old-character’s scene involving a peach sparking debate, we thought it a good time to take a look back at homo-sex in cinema. The Academy Awards are finally here, and Call Me By Your Name is in the running for four major awards (it t already took home top voting honors in the 2018 Queerties).
