An Empty Bed
(1990)
-
- 剧情:In his twilight, a lonely gay man reflects on his life and the three loves of his long-lost youth one woman and two men. Forced into early retirement by a heart attack, he wanders aimlessly through the graffiti-marred streets of his New York neighborhood. Familiar haunts trigger flashbacks of happy and not-so happy times. Could anything have been different? Could he have denied his true identity and married as his lover, Peter, did? Should he have? Would it have worked out? Could he have lived with himself? These seem to be the unspoken questions in the back of his mind. A phone call to the now-married man for whom he still holds deep affection, concludes this moving and very satisfying character study.

John Wylie beautifully portrays Bill Frayne, a gay man in his sixties who reflects on his younger days, the choices he has made, and the prospect of an empty bed. He lives alone, having been unable commit himself to a relationship because of a variety of social and personal pressures. He looks back without regret, and with a feeling tha things could not have turned out differently. Told largely through flashbacks, the film is a time tapestry where past and present weave together to form a poignant picture of his life.

An Empty Bed is a day in the life of Bill Frayne, a gay man in his sixties, living alone in Greenwich Village. During the course of his typical day, Bill encounters objects, people and places which stir and revive memories from his past. An Empty Bed is a sensual and evocative drama about an aging gay man that challenges its audience's perception of the choices that we all make in our lives -- in love, in sexualtiy, and in the ability to express our feelings.
