A Very British Gangster is a 2007 documentary that has the cameras following husky Dominic Noonan who just happens to be a leader to one of the most dangerous crime families in Britain. This film has you tag along as you witness Dominic enter and leave courtrooms for crimes alledgedly linked to him. You also see him interact with his gang of mates and you also meet his brother who is just as dangerous as Dominic. Oh... and the kicker to all this... Dominic Noonan is openly gay. Yessir, he's this big and bulky Bearish real life gangster who is gay and is always wearing a suit and tie. If you know anything about Torrents, you can see it here (and thanks to Eric Z. (galleries - profile) for pointing this movie out to me).

It wasn't too long ago that LOGO aired a documentary called Bear Run the Movie, directed by Dan Hunt. Unfortunately I don't get LOGO so I wasn't able to see it, however if you missed it as well, you can purchase the DVD for $29.95 from their site. It's well worth it since all I've been hearing are praises from all those who saw it. And in other news, Dan Hunt (pic #1 - pic #2) was interviewed in the latest issue of BEEF Mag (website - article - cover).

The following is a snippet of the movie from their site: "Award-winning documentarian Dan Hunt has created a delightful, intimate - and surprising - portrait of what it means to be a maturing gay man in the new millennium. BEAR run tracks the contemporary rituals, language, values  and evolving aesthetic of bear culture, by following three characters  as they romp through the '06-'08 event circuit Bear Albany, International Bear Rendezvous, Bear Week – Provincetown, Bear Trek and Lazy Bear Weekend... among others".
