unlabelledView post →finally watched Stranger By The Lake... it really is a solid hitchcocky thriller about gay sex? and the ending is so good I was screaming. probably my favoritest gay movie in a while
unlabelledView post →i read that it took Alain Guiraudie 45 days to write Stranger by The Lake man there's so little dialogue like half that movie is dudes staring at stuff or fucking eachother how long does it take to write "and then he sucks his dick in a way that is really hot but also foreboding"
unlabelledView post →Rewatched Stranger By The Lake last night, what a film. Feeling very cosmic horror about it despite the gritty realism. Henri's last words, goddamn.

unlabelledView post →Gathering notes to outline an essay comparing themes in the 2013 film, L'Inconnu du lac (Stranger By The Lake), and several short stories by Joe Koch. There's as much to explore on the shore, as in the depths.
unlabelledView post →Ok, these are just me, also no straight scenes because they are everywhere. A. The entire movie of Stranger by the Lake. B. I know it’s new, but holy shit Love Lies Bleeding. C. It’s kinda mainstream but the sex scenes in My Beautiful Laundrette are *chef’s kiss*
unlabelledView post →Finally watched the infamous Stranger By The Lake. After all the hullabaloo, I wasn’t expecting a Hitchcockian thriller about desire and danger and loneliness. Definitely not for kids, but a challenging, fascinating film.

unlabelledView post →Every country needs a ratings board, particularly with free TV. Tbf to them, they usually steer clear of film festivals, which allows filmmakers the leeway to just make whatever movie they want. That's why we have movies like [Fisting](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VZnTzxAk0kQ), [Dog Days](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_A5wkGztoVE), or the unfortunate [My Father Myself](https://letterboxd.com/film/my-father-myself/). Heck, QCinema constantly shows some of the most extreme art films around…

unlabelledView post →Stranger by the Lake, another really good and well made film

unlabelledView post →Stranger by the Lake is such a great and fascinating film.
unlabelledView post →#bestgayever film selection Stranger by the Lake -2014 R French [sub] Erotic thrillers usually feature straight leading characters, especially in Hollywood fare. Well written, cleverly crafted and focuses in on its story instead of trying to be titillating or exploitative of the queer themes.

unlabelledView post →Misericordia review – waking dream of a movie is one of the strangest films of the year. cross-posted from: https://feddit.uk/post/26381293 > > Writer-director Alain Guiraudie must surely now be said to match Quentin Dupieux for the weirdest sense of humour in French cinema. But is comedy exactly what is happening here? Because this has to be one of the strangest films of the year – or the most deadpan of deadpan in-jokes. At one point, I thought I saw the performer playing a police officer…

unlabelledView post →My fan art, Stranger by the Lake (2013), a superb film.
unlabelledView post →not a Gaspar Noe movie but have you seen Stranger by the Lake?
unlabelledView post →stranger by the lake (2013) - Guiraudie oof. the Them article was *not* joking about that sex scene. that shit was *intense*. #strangerbythelake #alainguiraudie #queercinema #cinemastodon
unlabelledView post →I also watched Stranger by the Lake (2013) this year. a very horny film about cruising and the power of desire
unlabelledView post →Stranger By The Lake (2013) & La Residencia (1969). Two very self-contained movies that grapple w our culpability in the violence of others, each in different ways. There is much more to both, but that’s a good starting point. Stranger might be a perfect movie, but Residencia is still stunning

unlabelledView post →Caught up with the 2013 Alain Guiraudie erotic thriller "Stranger by the Lake," about a drowning at a beach in rural France that's a popular gay cruising spot. This is a seductive and explicit film that's also suspenseful, surprising and unsettling.
unlabelledView post →I was being facetious but upon rewatch I do genuinely think Stranger by the Lake is a great summer romance movie
unlabelledView post →I really liked Misericordia so I finally got around to watching Stranger By The Lake. and that is a very strange movie. very well worked out formally but man is it opaque. I'm genuinely not sure what kind of sense to make of it.
unlabelledView post →It's Sinful Sunday over at Omnivorous, where I examined the film Stranger by the Lake, showing how it brilliantly twines together desire and the death drive. It's a helluva of a film, and it's one of the sexiest things I've ever seen. open.substack.com/pub/omnivoro...
unlabelledView post →huge fan of Knife+Heart! another basically perfect film imo, but it has the same problem as the excellent Stranger By the Lake suggestion, which means we can’t assign it for our film club — we’ve all seen it already (and we all lovvve it)
unlabelledView post →From the director of STRANGER BY THE LAKE comes MISÉRICORDIA- a queer erotic drama about the horrors of returning to one's hometown. Our review of the latest from Alain Guiraudie: #misericordia #AlainGuiraudie
unlabelledView post →NIGHT STAGE releases this Summer in the UK from @peccadillopics.bsky.social. It's the kind of film they haven't had on deck since the glory days of 'Stranger By The Lake' and 'You And The Night'. Go see it!
unlabelledView post →Maybe to compare with another movie I watched recently: Stranger by the Lake is critical of gay men in a couple ways. Frank doesn't report the murder he saw & has a death drive (allegorical for AIDS). Gays cruise days after a murder (otoh, "life goes on"). But they're also shown with virtue and joy
unlabelledView post →One of the better films we saw about a year ago was Stranger by the Lake (2013). It’s a French film shot at a cruising beach. Unbeknownst to the lead actor, he falls for a man that had a disturbing hobby. It’s a suspense film.
unlabelledView post →It is super good! Favorite movie mentioned - Funeral Parade of Roses, Stranger by the Lake, Saint Laurent...off the top of my head.
unlabelledView post →Next influence for I Lost Something in the Hills is Stranger by the Lake! Though not exactly a horror film, Stranger explores how ideals can obscure our judgement, and the dangers of yearning after the impossible. Its complex handling of gay male psyches is an important touchstone.
unlabelledView post →Stranger By The Lake is another film I really enjoy
unlabelledView post →Alain Guiraudie's 2013 Stranger by the Lake, the only film in SIFF's Prestige Sleaze series with which I was unfamiliar, is possibly the most explicit non-pornographic film I've ever seen. The intro from SIFF Graphic Design Lead Rhys Iliakis was perfection. ("Body Head" should read "Body Heat.")
unlabelledView post →Watching Stranger By The Lake (2013) with a friend and this is all you need to know about the movie tbh
unlabelledView post →Tested out my ex's projector by projecting Stranger By The Lake on the bedroom wall. I knew it was gay but I wasn't prepared for her wall being covered in cock for the entire film. The close-up of an ejaculating penis was a highlight
unlabelledView post →For a very compelling (and very different) film, I recommend "Stranger by the Lake" (L'Inconnu du Lac).
unlabelledView post →(2/4) Stranger by the Lake (2013) . Blending erotic romance with suspense, the film explores the dangerous intersection of desire, obsession, and mortality through a story that is as intellectually provocative as it is emotionally unsettling. .
unlabelledView post →At the Hi-Pointe for a perfect double feature: Stranger by the Lake and Blue Film!
unlabelledView post →Happy Pride! I'm celebrating with a film series at The Film Experience on super gay films from my super straight perspective! Up first, Stranger by the Lake thefilmexperience.net/blog/2026/6/...
