Friday Movie: Goldfish Memory

By Mister Curie

As I noted in my post titled "Bisexuality", from Wikipedia:

Sexual attraction, behavior and identity may be incongruent. For example, sexual attraction and/or behavior may not necessarily be consistent with identity. Some individuals may identify themselves as homosexual or bisexual without having had any sexual experience. Others have had homosexual experiences but do not consider themselves to be gay, lesbian, or bisexual. Further, sexual orientation falls along a continuum. In other words, someone does not have to be exclusively homosexual or heterosexual, but can feel varying degrees of both. Sexual orientation develops across a person's lifetime-different people realize at different points in their lives that they are heterosexual, bisexual or homosexual.

Some of the comments have discussed this sexual fluidity and the inherent inadequacies of labels. Madam Curie and I recently watched a hilarious romantic comedy, available for instant viewing on Netflix, that seemed to be a great example of sexual fluidity. The movie is titled, "Goldfish Memory." The movie follows several individuals through multiple, intersecting homosexual and heterosexual relationships, with all the hilarity that such intersections can bring. I also appreciated that the homosexuality presented did not fit the American gay counter-culture stereotypes and essentially all the relationships were treated with respect, while still allowing for comedy. Five stars, two thumbs up, and highly recommended.

Anyone else out there seen this? What did you think?
