Today NakedSword releases their most ambitious film project to date and the much talked about gay independent feature film, I WANT YOUR LOVE, is now playing exclusively on NAKEDSWORD.COM.
From the start, I WANT YOUR LOVE was a cinematic hybrid. Acclaimed indie film director Travis Mathews’s story about gay relationships was too explicit for most mainstream producers but it wasn’t necessarily “porn” either . With I WANT YOUR LOVE NakedSword bridges that gap between mainstream and porn more than ever before.
Yes, there are hardcore sex scenes in this film but it’s not your usual porno either. That’s why they call it a cinematic hybrid.
Director Travis Mattews brilliantly weaves hot sex scenes into intimate moments that the star Jessie has with all the relationships he has made during his stay in the Bay area.
And because of the sex scenes, Australian censors banned I Want Your Love from screening at all in the country [Read: Australia Censors Gay Film: What Gay Filmmaking Can Learn From Porn]
Few films have captured the reality of gay life — and gay sex — like “I Want Your Love.” The film follows one man (Jesse Metzger) during his last weekend in San Francisco, as he comes to terms with the city he loves, and friends he’s leaving behind. Hailed by critics for both its eloquence and its explicitness, director Travis Matthews’ debut feature marks him as an astounding new voice in queer cinema.
The I Want Your Love Casting Video
James Franco speaks directly to Australian Classification Board about their decision to ban the feature, I WANT YOUR LOVE, even from an adult viewing audience.
Franco recently collaborated with this film’s director, Travis Mathews, on a film that explores sex as a story-telling tool in addition to censorship and personal, sexual and creative boundaries, INTERIOR. LEATHER BAR.
Anderson says
The casting video is awesome. Conner Habbib is Andre??
MarcoManuel says
Lots of people says that James Franco is a closet case.Either bi or gay.
Because he played so much gay caracters in so much movies.
He said that he will keep playing gay caracters.
James Franco is the actor who played the most gay men in movies.
Would a real straight man really play that much gay men in movies?
Can a man be that comfortable with his sexuality?
Undercover Bottom says
If James franco was a closet case wouldn’t he be a avoiding speculation by not doing gay roles? He’s not a closet case.
Luiz says
Just watched. INCREDIBLE movie.
Darkhog says
I’m glad James Franco is daring, and taking on characters that others are afraid to go. When gays are potrade on film, it’s either a sidekick, comedy, or just a guy standing in the corner. We are a part of society, and hopefully these indie films will give us a place to watch and be proud of.

I liked the other guy on short version of the film. So sad he left the film.
Matias says
Looks very interesting, I surely want to see it.
James Franco is one of the few Hollywood actors today that dare to do things differently. He has guts. I like him a lot and find him very attractive.
Dave in NYC says
Watched I Want Your Love the other day. To sum up: Don’t bother. To the extent that there was a plot, it was swallowed up by bad acting and cliches. This isn’t a movie. It isn’t even a film. It’s a bad porn with pretensions.
Anthony says
A lot of people don’t realise that in my country which happens to be Australia , that pornography that which is not softcore ie playboy etc is still actually illegal. a lot of people dont seen to know that.
