SWOON forces its driving homoeroticism into the daylight (not to mention the Jewishness of both killers and victim). Featuring legendary Ron Vowter as the prosecuting states attorney, SWOON flexes its brainy elegance to question the "queerness" of the case, and even extends the story to reveal how each of the imprisoned duo met his eventual death. A former member of New Yorks ACT UP and the AIDS activist collective Gran Fury, Kalin is bracingly indifferent to the tyranny of "positive images where same-sex desire is concerned, and SWOON, in its defiance and its lyrical intelligence, stands peerless within the last century's queerly-inclined cinema.Bill Horrigan, Curator, Media Arts, Wexner Centre for the Arts, The Ohio State University© 1992 Killer Films
