Richard Fontaine's Days of Greek Gods

About This Movie

Days of Greek Gods is a fascinating dive into the evolution of male representation in visual culture. Directed by Dick Fontaine, the film intricately weaves the collaborative journey of Richard Fontaine and Bob Mizer as they navigate the male nude. The atmosphere is filled with a sense of exploration—each segment unfolds like a dialogue between past and present. The pacing varies, sometimes slow as it lingers on the artistry of the human form, and other times rapid, almost frenetic, as it showcases the evolution of archetypes like the gladiator or the sailor. The performances are less about acting and more about embodying ideals. What stands out is how the film doesn't shy away from the complexities of sexuality while reinventing those familiar icons we’ve come to recognize.
