Genres & Description

Drama Romance

7.7 / 10

Two male English school chums find themselves falling in love at Cambridge. To regain his place in society, Clive gives up his forbidden love, Maurice (pronounced "Morris") and marries. While staying with Clive and his shallow wife, Anne, Maurice finally discovers romance in the arms of Alec, the gamekeeper. Written from personal pain, it's E.M. Forster's story of coming to terms with sexuality in the Edwardian age.

I'm in the midst of a grand mission to make myself as familiar as possible with gay-themed cinema. So far, staying off the beaten path, here are some of the movies I found worth watching. "The Hollow Reed" (UK), "Four Moons" (Mexico), "Five Dances" (US), "We Think the World of You" (UK), "Sebastian" (Norway), "Heartstone" (Iceland), "Nobody's Watching (US?) "Out of the Closet, Off the Screen: The Life of William Haines." The last one is a documentary about a man I had never heard of and whose story every Lugbut (I added vowels to LGBT to make it pronounceable as a word -- I hope it catches on) ought to know. If you are interested in gay-themed poetry and music, you might want to check out my youtube channel. - @Friday, August 24, 2018 2:46 PM

The best part of this is that the book the movie is based on was written in 1913(even though Forster was afraid to publish it until 1960, for the obvious reasons). It was way ahead its time. - @Thursday, August 16, 2018 8:48 PM

IMHO Maurice and Alec needed much more scenes. Their chemistry is not as strong as Maurice and Clive. But Clive is a bitch so i take that as enough. - @Thursday, May 24, 2018 2:49 PM

Shabadabadoo hi

Its brilliant that this film was released in a time when it was not socially acceptable to be gay yet so well received. Its also very good that they re-released it from 1987-2017 time fly's. - @Sunday, April 1, 2018 7:06 PM

This is a beautiful film that is so necessary. Very few lgbt films end the way this does (I'm looking at you Call Me By Your Name) and that is why this movie (and book - please go read the book it is so lovely) is so very important. Also if you like this, you might also like Carol (based on The Price of Salt) - @Friday, March 30, 2018 2:42 PM

Good Lord, all the Brokeback Mountain comparisons! Maurice and Brokeback are 18 years apart. There have actually been MANY other gay-themed films that have come in between. Apparently, the only gay film some people here have ever seen is Brokeback. - @Saturday, October 28, 2017 5:00 AM
