Pier-Gabriel Lajoie in Gerontophilia (2013)
In this wry “reverse Lolita” tale, 18-year-old Lake discovers he has an unusual attraction for the elderly. Fate lands him a job at an assisted-living facility where he develops an intimate relationship with Mr. Peabody. Upon discovering that the clients are being over-medicated to make them more manageable, Lake weans Mr. Peabody off his medication and helps him escape, resulting in a road trip that deepens their bond. The always-provocative Bruce LaBruce returns with a delicately perverse romantic comedy that is both darkly humorous and emotionally heartfelt.

    • Quotes

      Désirée: Okay, I've been thinking about this a lot since the last time I saw you. What I want to tell you is, um, I think that what your doing and what you are is really brave. And the fact that you're acting on it, you know, like its revolutionary. All these ideas poeple have about, like, aging and beauty and what makes a person desirable, like, you're going against that. You're fighting against nature. And, do you see how radical that is?

    You have good vintage grapes, sir.
    Charming, sensitive, non-judgmental and comic portrayal of what is often seen as an awkward subject. Watching this and I wonder why. It's great to see this level of filmmaking from Bruce LaBruce and look forward to more from him, however charming his gay zombies and anarchists are! As already mentioned this is like a modern day Harold & Maude, which can only be a good comparison.
