Suddenly, Last Summer Reviews

*frantically googling this film as a scathing critique of colonialism and the culpability of bourgeois gays in the racist exploitation of the global south by forging a self-serving and unholy alliance with capital which ultimately cannibalizes the queer community*

just me, huh?

Gut-wrenching psychological thriller, which culminates in one of the best Elizabeth Taylor performances of all time.

I've heard the name Sebastian so many times it's drilled in my head now. I love me a gothic tale even if I didn't really find the story all that engaging for me. The performances are great, of course, especially from Elizabeth Taylor.

god this movie is so brilliant and so fantastic, and soooooo heavily gay coded. i cried. oh my god. elizabeth taylor is fantastic

A southern gothic Tennessee Williams play featuring Liz Taylor & Kat Hepburn directed by Manciewez? Yes! The actual writing and premise? A smidge wobbly. But I guess the dark denouement tracks for the genre.

sooooooo sooooo good
