Austin Butler shirtless

American teen actor Austin Butler is hot! Almost too hot - or were these pictures really shot after August 17th, 2009, when he turned 18? (Does anyone know where the pictures come from?)
Pat Mastroianni in Degrassi Junior High

Remember Degrassi?
Joey Jeremiah, played by Pat Mastroianni, was the wild heartbreaker of the school. He was smashing even in Hawaii shirts.
I have a picture stuck in my mind since I was 14. One of Joey’s pranks has backfired and he’s in the nude, covering his crotch with his hat. Damn! That picture made stronger impact even than seeing a shirtless Brian Austin Green in Beverly Hills 90210 a couple of years later.
Do you know which episode or at least which season it was? I wouldn’t wanna buy all five of them (let alone watch them) for a few minutes of nostalgia.
Don’t miss L’île atlantique on Arte tomorrow

I haven’t seen the French film L’île atlantique/Insel der Diebe, but the theme young criminals is always enticing. Why, it’s a film based on a novel by Tony Duvert, who died recently.
The film will be screened tomorrow, Saturday 20th September 2008, on Arte at 23:00. Try to catch it - I will!
Here’s what Arte wrote (in German) at the film’s first screening in 2005.
German Wikipedia has a another description (also in German) of the film.
Patrik 1,5 - a teenage boy in a gay family
Posted on | September 17, 2008 | No Comments
We’re back from a week’s vacation, during which we attended the premiere of Ella Lemhagen’s new film Patrik 1,5 (Patrik, Age 1.5), about a gay male couple who wants to adopt a child. Due to a typographical error, they think their new child will be one and a half years old - but he turns out to be 15. And unbelievably gorgeous at that, but since the gays are portrayed as the only normal people in the village, that is no problem.
The film is a traditional feel-good movie with Desperate Housewives aesthetics and a schoolbook script. And the execution is impeccable. Well done, Ella! I even shed the occasional tear.
On a symbolical level, the film is proof of how lovable gay men are these days. A little bit too lovable, it seems, since they are not allowed to have any flaws at all. Indeed, all straight people in the film are portrayed in such an unfavourable way that they sort of create the ugly background that makes the gay men’s normality shine even brighter. I think that’s what’s called overcompensating.
