Gay Man's Guide to Safer Sex '97 (2024 Director's Cut) (55 min.) The two British “Gay Man's Guide” films (1992, directed by David Lewis, and 1997 by Rob Falconer) revolutionized the on-screen discussion of HIV with direct, no-nonsense dissemination of sexual health information to gay men. The 1992 film, one of most successful gay videos of all time, blew the locks off UK censorship barriers to showing explicit gay sexuality on screen. Just five years later, the 1997 film continued that tradition by blowing the doors off, with Aiden Shaw (aka Aiden Brady) as its iconic star. Filmmaker Rob Falconer recently completed an all-new director’s cut of the groundbreaking film. The new 2k Digital Cinema Print is not only beautiful, but stands as a part of LGBTQ+ history for its totally frank, informed discussion on gay sexuality, HIV/AIDS and more.
