A SUPERB MOVIE
First I must thank and congratulate the director of this movie and all the actors. This is a must own movie which you'll want to watch over and over... don't miss it!
Flawed Lola shows lots of promise
Lola and Billy the Kid is a very good movie for about three quarters of its length. As a portrait of young gay men getting by in an oppressive social mileiu this film is rather better than Don't Tell Anyone (certainly better photographed and scored) if inferior to Head On, one of the key gay films of the last few years. It's also deeply flawed...the aspects dealing with a young Turkish man coming to terms with his sexuality are very well done but the whole gory sequence involving the revenge of psychopathic Billy on his ex-lover Lola's killers
is absurd and throws the film completely out of whack. It takes the film awhile to regain it's balance again and frankly there will be those who lose all respect and interest for the film after that sequence. The best parts of the film involve a subplot with a wealthy German man Friedrich, his proud and pompous mother (brilliantly played by Inge Keller) and an incredibly handsome Turkish rough-trade number played by the alarmingly sexy Murat Yilmaz. All of the sequences with them are very funny and provide some welcome relief from the non-stop melodrama of the rest of the film. In fact, if this subplot had been the MAIN plot of the film and the whole Lola murder/revenge bit dropped the film would have been indisputably great. As it is now, it's a seriously flawed but overall worthwhile entertainment for those interested in the subject matter.
