just saw this film trailer for Pillion and I'm low-key excited. Alexander Skarsgård looks so intense as the biker dude ... I mean, who wouldn't want to watch a movie about leather culture and queer motorcycle gangs? The chemistry between the leads is palpable ... my only concern is that it's gonna be super raunchy , but if they can balance the kinkiness with some real emotional depth, I'm in https://www.theguardian.com/film/20...gard-harry-melling-leather-culture-gay-bikers
lol, I can see why Alexander Skarsgård is hyped about this film! As someone who's followed the queer community's journey for years, I think it's amazing that the filmmakers are tackling these complex themes head-on . The fact that Ray (played by Skarsgård) is part of a leather culture scene, but not just a one-dimensional "biker" trope, shows that they're committed to authenticity. And, let's be real, who wouldn't want to see more representation of queer characters on screen? It's refreshing to hear the director say that he aimed to create a nuanced portrayal without shying away from raunchiness or shame – it's about time we had more honest conversations around sex and queerness! But, what do you guys think about the controversy surrounding this film? Should it be marketed as a "dom-com" (biker drama) or is that still a problematic label?
