- Description
A classic gay love story based on Richard Amory's best-selling trilogy set in the American wilderness of 1870, this film is historically notable as one of the last major gay softcore releases on the cusp of hardcore. A sincere, well-produced film about unashamed and unpossessive gay male love, its period piece story is well-rendered through scenic locales and the poetic beauty of its camerawork. Troubled by sexual conflicts and pursued by a vengeful preacher and a former lover, young Ephraim seeks and finds peace of mind with the help of a handsome cowboy and an Indigenous medicine man. There is no explicit sex, though it is alluded to artistically through tender touching, kissing, and plentiful nudity and eroticism in attractive outdoor settings. Though full of stereotypical depictions of Native people, the film's romantic content and commentary on love and sexuality are thoughtful and touching and its storyline is strong. A landmark gay film of historical note for those interested in the history of gay cinema and gay erotic filmmaking.
