Star Appeal (2004)

A beautiful painting

Very weird, very strange, and absolutely beautiful with this weirdness. Another example of a low budget gem, a beautiful magnetic picture, where the faces features are not too sharp, but you enjoy watching silhouettes and lights surraunded with this strange sounds, and all this creates an amazing atmosphere.
The plot of the film may seem illogical, but the way the story goes you accept it all and you are not disturbed. A naked man standing on a highway claims to be from Mars and is picked up by people who just simply accept his story and later on teach the ET everything about the Earth and earthly interactions.
Initially, I thought that the BL thread would be someting superficial or of less importance, but it's the axis of the film. Actually the theme is simply love, love that connects living creatures regardless their sexes, and their origin.
The scene when an Earthling explains to a Martian how love is expressed on Earth, the naked silhouettes and vibrant colors and calm, is simply a cult scene for me. The next one in which the Earthling and the Martian finally show this love to each other is simply hypnotic.
Yes, I know, the film may irritate those who like fast action and a realistic story, but for me it's just a wonderful picture that I can't take my eyes off of.
