Confirmed Bachelor(1994)
Confirmed Bachelor shakes up a mix of written and spoken text. Angela Carter’s quote counterpoints fundamentalist voices; shots of hothouse flowers play over a born-again doctor’s commentary on the ins and outs of gay male carnality. This humorless spew of a turgid imagination was lifted from The Gay Agenda, an agit-prop tape circulated in the Senate by Christian conservatives. A collision of disco hooks, floating quotes, and fertile nature, Confirmed Bachelor lovingly smothers their moralistic posturing under a blanket of blooms.
