Thus Lally's married life was never smooth-sailing because of Elaine. But for the love of her husband, Lally endures the hardships in dealing with her mother-in-law and with he support of her father-in-law. However, when Lally got pregnant with their second child, Vincent suddenly became distant and cold towards her.
Unknown to Lally, Vincent is keeping a secret from her; it is also a secret he has kept from everyone else since he was young. Vincent is a closeted homosexual man who never came out for fear that it'll destroy his family. However, everything changed when he once again crosses paths with Eric - his greatest love. Unlike Vincent, Eric is openly gay. But, just like Vincent, he is still in love with him.
Eventually, the two men start an affair and Vincent tries to hide the affair from Lally by showering her with gifts and attention. However, Lally's intuition tells her that something is wrong in her seemingly perfect marriage. That's when she starts to investigate and she eventually learns of Vincent's darkest secret.(Wiki)


My Review:

Well to start with I usually expect some intimate scenes and kisses between the couple when I watch a BL…I mean without them I don’t get the complete feel of the movie/drama…Ok you can say I am kind of pervert :P lol…but that’s what makes those movies so cute and adorable right…

And  there are no such scenes in this drama…Not even a single kiss scene…Yes you heard me *SHOCKING*…But I must say this is one of the best dramas (LGBT) that I have seen…Its such a beautiful story …The outlook and portrayal is very MATURE... We see two people who are truly in LOVE with each other... Their struggles/hurdles they had to go through but still sustained everything…Its really hard to explain this, there are a lot of mixed feelings…You can feel their love at every part of the scene...The lead couple had an amazing chemistry...They are sooo cute togetherrrr :)

Every actor did their role quite well..Such an amazing storyline and direction…Kudos to the team…

My Rating: 9/10

It’s a must watch for BL lover and any person who wants to know what true love means…

A musical interpretation of three lovers living in Paris...

My Review:

To be frank i did not like this movie at first, it was kinda boring and dragging...But as it progresses it totally won me over in the end... I love how the music was weaved into the flow of the story,everybody just sing their feelings on the go...There are a few songs which will strike to you right away...Especially the last song Erwann sings...I just love it...I mean i don't understand french but the tunes are so grasping and soothing...

The very last line of this movie is like my favvvvvvv - "Love me less but love me for a long time "...

FYI:- You have to wait almost till the second half to see BL...But its definitely worth a wait...

My Rating: 9/10

If you are into musicals then this is for you...If you are not then you will get into that after watching this movie :)

My Review:

All I'm going to say is i have been obsessed with this show for a long long time...On second thoughts May be i stilll am...The character of Brian Kinney is one of my fav characters in any gay series till date...Both promiscuous and vain Gale Harold has been the perfect match for this role....GALE GALE GALE...Thats has been my all time mantra during the series ... The story and characters were very engaging and kept me hooked episode after episode...Britin(Justin and Brian) are the cutest hottest sexiest couple ever... The series has always dealt gay and lesbian characters in real situations which is very nice...

The story of Britin is soooooo romantic...The prom dance is my fav scene in the entire series...Awwwww arent they so damn adorable...I really felt sad that the series had come to an end...And mainly i was not at all satisfied with the ending...I wish they both could be together...These days i hear rumors about the reunion and a movie on talks...If that is true then i will be crazyyyy and start counting days to watch it....

P.S:- The sex and kisses are like the best ever...There is so much passion and feel....

My Rating: 10/10

This is the most addictive series...you have to watch it...Thats it...You will love itttttttttttttttt

The Normal Heart

..Movie Name: The Normal Heart
Language: English
Director : Ryan Murphy
Subtitles: Yes
Where to watch: You Tube,Veoh,Watch32.com

Cast:-
Mark Ruffalo
Matt Bomer

Synopsis:-                                *Warning Spoilers*

The story of the onset of the HIV-AIDS crisis in New York City in the early 1980s, taking an unflinching look at the nation's sexual politics as gay activists and their allies in the medical community fight to expose the truth about the burgeoning epidemic to a city and nation in denial...(Imdb)

My Review:

Now this is a kind of movie which everyone should watch...This is a very thought provoking and insightful movie dealing with the kind of problems which people never want to deal in their life...This is not a movie for gay people or someone interested in BL movies...The topic of AIDS had been brilliantly handled by the director...

I am personally a huge fan of Mark Ruffalo...I watched every movie of his and i must say he did not disappoint me as ever...He did marvelously well and gave the role a killing performance...Matt Bomer was completely outstanding and totally loved him...I am sure even if the director had the hold of movie,if it was for these two actors it would not have reached this mark...

My Rating: 9/10

I would highly recommend this film...Its not just the happy side of BL...Be ready to see the hard part of the Gay community and face the truth...

Verbotene liebe(Christian And Oliver)


..Drama Name: Verbotene liebe
Language: German 
Created By: Reg Watson
Subtitles: Yes
Where to watch: You Tube

Cast:-
Thore Scholermann
Jo Weil


Synopsis:-                                *Warning Spoilers*

Verbotene Liebe is a German television soap opera created by Reg Watson for Das Erste...Verbotene Liebe received international attention in 2008 with the love story of Christian Mann and Oliver Sabel. ..Since then, the show has developed a large following elsewhere in Europe and beyond...The relationship between Oliver and Christian unfolds as a love story of two people who happen to be gay, rather than one of gay caricatures trying to play house, as is often the case...

Christian at the start of the series is straight and then falls for Olli...They even get married twice and adopt a child during the series...But when Thore playing the role of Christian quit the show...They have been depicted as separated and divorced...The ups and downs of the couple's relationship play out over five years of the series...I think that's the longest couple ever on screen(especially for this kind of storyline)...

My Review:

This is the first Gay Drama i ever watched...It tops my list of BL collection anytime...No matter how many i might come across in the future...This is always special to me...I just love this soap soooo much...The best and romantic BL story line...Christian and Oliver perfectly fits the line "MADE FOR EACH OTHER"...

I remember, i was casually browsing through youtube and came across this story line...I just clicked and thought to give it a try and i I was totally glued to this series...I just could not sleep and rest until i completed this story...  around 500 episodes(without a break )... This was so amazing and awesome...I totally fell in love with Thore...Christian and Oliver are like the perfect couple...Thore and Jo suited the roles so perfectly well and it has all the ingredients of a perfect couple...Love,jealousy,hate,denial,emotion... you name it and its there...Perfect perfect perfect

This blog is just not enough to express my love for this couple...Thanks to all the people who shared this beautiful story line with us...Kuddos to you...I owe you guys a big time...I had the best moments ...

And yessss the Kisses and the Love scenes are the best i have ever ever seen in any BL...They are so involved,its like they are not acting and going for it (LOL)...

My Rating: 10/10

My rating is obviously a 10 for this and i would like highly highly recommend this...Watch it...You will thank me and fill me with hugs...I bet on it...

The main character, is Du the Death Girl, and she is the guardian of the bridge called the "Nai He Qiao", she is the Chinese equivalent of Charon and the river, over which her bridge spans, the Chinese equivalent of the Styx.

The bridge is crumbling and its masonry is falling away, so Du sets off to look for people who are willing to be turned into a rock, with which to repair the bridge, in exchange for a wish. Du can only be summoned when a particular person has a rock from the bridge and wants to die because he or she can not continue through a difficult time. However Shen Qi, who has a brain tumor, can see Du even without desiring death nor possessing a rock. After he learns that Du took Huang He away, Shen Qi tries to save people from Du and prevent her from taking their lives away.

Shen Qi slowly becomes curious about Du and tries to find out who she was in her previous life. He discovers that in Du's previous life she was a girl named Du He, whose Death Girl comic won first place in a competition. He also learns that in her previous life, Gao Chao who was also chosen to take part in the competition, substituted the better of his work for an inferior one, in order for Du He to have a better chance at winning the prize money because she needed it more.

Not long after, Gao Chao asks Du He to marry him and she does. However, one night, Du He's brother, Du Ji becomes drunk. He has fallen in love with his own sister and is upset at her marriage. Enraged, Du Ji uses a wooden plank to hit Gao Chao, causing him to fall into a pool. Du He, shocked, comes out screaming for Gao Chao. Du Ji tries to calm her down and tells her the reasons for his actions. Du He reveals that she feels the same way as Du Ji does; however she does not wish to wrong Gao Chao and jumps into the pool. With the thought that her existence only brings tragedy to the world, she becomes brain dead and falls into deep coma. Gao Chao recovers but Du He does not. He flies to Japan by himself and becomes engaged to another woman.

Shen Qi, who started out pitying Du, begins to love her and Du comes to love him too. When Shen Qi's father learns that Shen Qi has a brain tumor, he immediately plans for it to be operated upon. However Shen Qi does not wish to have the tumor removed, as he knows that once removed he will never be able to see Du in this life again. Can the lovers be together though they are from two different worlds, or will they be forever separated?(Wiki)

My Review:

Well as the synopsis mentions this is a Drama with 12 different stories...In which ep 13-14 has a gay story line...You can watch the full drama if you want to understand the characters related to this storyline or just those 2 episodes(like me)...

Now coming to the story...This is about Xio Lun,who has a girly personality and Da Dong who continuously bullies Lun but finally falls in love with him...Well if you ask me i did not even find this worth watching....I just felt this to be so jumbled and lot of things left unexplained...The love and emotions could have been portrayed much better...I felt it really boring...And much more boring to write a review for this *YAWNingggg*

My Rating: 4/10

Keep it for some really boring time when you have nothing else to do...The 4 is only for the actors...They are really cute...Especially Dong :)

My Review:

Firstly this movie reminds me of Miss Congeniality,like totally...I heard a lot of negative reviews about this film and here i am defending this...I mean why do some people like the routine kind of stories,with serious or sad ending kind of BL love....Humor is also a part of love and much more part of a movie...Now this is a brainless comedy and entertaining movie...Dont look for logics in this...Just sit back and enjoy...

The lead actors are cute and its fun...I know it has its own flaws...I myself felt dumb in some parts...But not every movie is perfect...Anyways i would definitely suggest this movie for a casual time and to have some laugh...The ending is really cute and so is the actor who plays Shin :)

My Rating: 7/10

Watch it for fun...If you need logic...Then this is not for you...
