Favorite Asian, Gay-Themed Feature Films
The films that most rocked my world as I first stumbled across the vast universe of gay-themed Asian cinema, ranked from greatest to slightly less-great. In the first weeks after my discovery I often watched two or three of these movies per day. These are the ones that left me sobbing, laughing and exhausted. In a few cases I have included a series that I first experienced as a film, and which led to a film sequel.
