My Life As an Actor
Writer
Eric De Kuyper’s first feature film in 25 years is made up of sequences that pay tribute to a range of Hollywood genres.
Pink Ulysses
An actor prepares, removing his shirt to iron it. All shirts stay off. In a mix of black and white, colour, and old film clips, a homoerotic odyssey begins. Troy is sacked, and Odysseus starts his languorous journey back to Penelope and Telemachos, who wait in Ithaca. Odysseus dreams: young well-muscled men roll on sheets, hands remove flowers to disclose a sculpted torso. The ship tosses Odysseus; gobs sleep in hammocks; a storm beats down and a life boat seeks a strand. Circe, disguised as Penelope, seduces Odysseus; he stays with her for seven years. In Ithaca, Penelope and her suitors are impatient. Will Odysseus arrive before the film crew breaks for lunch?
Naughty Boys
Emili
An ode to musicals past. Handsome men spend their time in a beautiful manor.
Casta Diva
A celebration of the male form. A series of observations of men, filmed in beautiful black and white, with an almost total absence of the spoken word.
