23 August 2004
Parting Glances follows New York lovers Michael and Robert on the eve of Robert's departure for Africa where his employer has reassigned him. During the night of farewell partying with friends they come to terms with the end of their relationship. In the background their best friend Nick is dying of AIDS but isn't going to stop drinking and smoking (a fantastic performance of cutting wit from Steve Buscemi).
Director Sherwood brings warmth and humour to his characters and depiction of Manhattan's mid 80's gay scene. The film was years ahead of its time in the handling of an AIDS storyline and portrayal of a gay relationship. A groundbreaking film that is now considered a classic.
