Product Description

Big Eden tells a truly original tale of a thirty-something gay guy, Henry Hart (Arye Gross, Ellen, Six Feet Under) who returns to his childhood Montana home to confront his unrequited passion for his high school best friend. Big Eden is a tiny town tucked away in the timberland of northwestern Montana, where cowboys lounge on the porch of the general store to pass the time away. It's also the childhood home of Henry Hart (Arye Gross), a successful but lonely New York artist, who returns after years away to care for his ailing grandfather. Back home, Henry confronts his unrequited passion for his high school best friend Dean (TimDeKay) and his feelings about being gay in a small town. But, as we quickly learn, Big Eden residents defy the stereotype of "small town, small minds." As Henry works though his emotions, the townspeople quietly conspire to help him along, until Henry realizes new possibilities for both friendship and romance. Big Eden is a uniquely American fable about home and family. It hits upon the universal longing and hope we each have for finding a place where we are loved, and the unconditional desire to see those that we love find happiness.

Amazon.com

Big Eden has won the audience awards at just about every gay and lesbian film festival there is. Henry (Arye Gross) is an artist living in New York but still carrying a torch for the guy he had a crush on in high school. When his grandfather has a stroke, Henry returns to his Montana hometown, Big Eden, where he rediscovers friends he hasn't seen in years. His high school crush has since married, had children, and divorced--and seems ready to take some very different steps with his life. Big Eden is one of those implausibly tolerant towns where lesbians kiss each other in public and old coots in cowboy hats try to play matchmaker with bashful gays. Still, it's this sweet warmth in Big Eden that has made it a festival crowd-pleaser. --Bret Fetzer

What a quiet stunning little masterpiece of film....

Reviewed in the United States on July 20, 2006

Verified Purchase

What a WONDERFUL wonderful little film....

This is how real movies are made. It is a quiet film. No shouting or in your face action. No thumping soundtrack. No megastars. This is peaceful feeling film about real characters who feel like real people. Much has been made about the fantasiness regarding a small town being that accepting of gay folks...But....Look at the gay folks....They look just like you and me. If you didn't know...you wouldn't know. They're real. Store owners, ranchers, cowboys, teachers, etc. I live in a VERY small rural town in Okla. I am a 46 yr old gay rancher. Yes...it has been hard living in this type of world. But..when I finally quit worrying about what folks thought of me I quickly noticed that to them I was JUST like them. Just a simple working man trying to make a living. They really didn't notice or care that I was gay. The people in Big Eden are this way. They care about each other. They help when they can. People sometimes will really surprise you if YOU just let them.

The story is outstanding. The script is tight and very funny. Lots a quiet little remarks that you pick up on after many viewings..."A woman did not make this"..."I have to hear about it from the Mayor"...

The acting is BEYOND outstanding. Gross and Schweig's character delivery are some of the finest on film (Ledger's in BBM is in the same league). They feel real. They act real. They have flaws and weakness. They cry, laugh, get their feelings hurt, fly above the ground with hope and crash without warning. Coe as Sampaw (the grandfather) is excellent!!!. O'Neal Compton as Jim and Nan Martin as the Widow are both as well. DeKay as Dean is not to be slighted either. This movie should have carted home a truck load of Oscars....But did not. Very Very sad.

It is a classic piece of film making at it's finest. Big Eden is sort of like the softer funnier side of Brokeback Mountain. Life is not always a fun thing to endure...But it is a beautiful ride.

The character of Pike is one of the finest I have ever seen put of film. If your heart doesn't break watching this man and his emotions and facial expressions....You are beyond help! Eric Schweig should have the Oscar sitting proudly on his home mantle...but...so should Heath Ledger. Both these actors can say more with just their eyes than 99% of the so-called "actors" working today.

Gross is wonderful as Henry. This part should have made him a major star. Actors would (or should) die to be able to submit a performance of this calibar. Henry is sweet, strong, frail, honest, flawed and ..yes...real. Both Henry and Pike have the feel of being so real you swear you can feel their breathe and heartbeats. Pretty cool I must say.

The director's direction is very well paced and feels like a day in life. Scenes don't feel fake or rushed. The Montana views are BREATHTAKING. The soundtrack selections are sort of odd and left field..but....work without fail. I was so impressed by the end song "Wishes" by Lari White that I had to find the cd. Also quite good.

If you love really good movie making...TRY this film. Put aside the gay theme...It really is a film about people and the worldly search for that elusive thing "love". Bruises and all. We all got 'em. We all want and need it.

This film never gets in your face. But..It does work it's way into your heart and soul. That my Friend is a RARITY for a movie!

A delightful fairy tale - no pun intended.

Reviewed in the United States on May 20, 2002

Verified Purchase

Big Eden arises from a startling concept by its creator: a universe in which there are no homophobes, in which the straights are not even slightly antagonistic to the gays in their midst. In this movie, every single pea-pickin' one of the heteros are encouragers and enablers to their gay neighbors. The only homophobia in Big Eden is that internalized by the town's two gay men (and one bi) and even that is partly just commitment phobia.
The result is an hilarious send-up of small town America, a paradise in which the good old boys who loiter at the general store all day squabble over whose turn it is to make the cappuchino and their different readings of the moves the gays are putting on each other. Every time you think the homophobic sh-t is going to hit the fan, it doesn't. If you're like me, this topsy-turvy state of affairs will have you rolling on the floor laughing your head off at times and bawling your eyes out at others. If the real world were like this, I'd go thru my days giggling non-stop.
The supporting cast is excellent, particularly George Coe as Sam, the dying grandfather, Louise Fletcher as Grace, an aptly named character, and O'Neal Compton as Jim Soams, the solicitous if not too perceptive leader of the bucolic gang down to the general store, perfectly cast against type (you'd expect to see him as a bigoted Southern sheriff). The scene in which Soams tries to find a way to ask Pike if he is 'one of them' is hilarious.
The principals are unfortunately somewhat less interesting than the supporting cast. Arye Gross as Henry Hart is such a distant character throughout most of the film, it's difficult to care much whether he finds love. Eric Schweig as Pike Dexter is also cast against type, though less successfully than Compton; he has an imposing physical presence and is good at glowering, staring at the floor and running from the room, but the character is too much of a caricature; we get to know him more from what others say of him than what he shares of himself. Tim DeKay as Dean is perhaps the least likeable character in a film in which it's hard to find someone not to like. Henry's high school crush, Dean has held on to his school-boy good looks and is newly divorced. Throughout the film he waffles over whether to get a new set of his-n-hers towels, or his-n-his. He provides a little tension in a love story which nevertheless remains not very interesting. Henry is clearly too hurt by what happened in the past to renew the love.
But the real core of the film is not the love story, which is not only not very captivating but also wrapped up a bit to easily at the end, but the themes of 'coming home to who you are' and 'being known.' Just days before he dies, Sam calls Henry to sit beside him on the sofa and complains 'you won't tell me who you are,' and 'I can't help thinking your grandma and I didn't do right by you some how' because of Henry's resistance to being known and accepting the love of the townsfolk. Henry doesn't get it, though, until it's too late.
These are the real discoveries Henry makes by returning home to Big Eden.
The soundtrack is excellent: simple, classic country songs, only a couple of which I could identify without watching the credits closely, which perfectly speak to the complexities which bedevil most lives. The setting of the film is, of course, magnificent.
I give Big Eden 5 Stars in the ratings system, though I would prefer to give it 4.5, downgrading it only for the lack of a more interesting, better told love story. Still, it is an excellent and very entertaining film and I highly recommend it.

Wonderful Love Story!

Reviewed in the United States on June 25, 2021

Years ago I fell in love with a little-known film on VHS tape titled "Big Eden." I treasured the film, but never dreamed it remained available in DVD format. Unless viewers are homophobic, they will be like me: they will fall in love with this movie about an improbably open and accepting Montana small town community. What is not to like? The sound track features great Western popular song classics. The Montana scenery is breathtaking. Virtually the entire movie was filmed in Glacier National Park with the complete cooperation of the Department of the Interior. Happily (in real life) neither the park officials or local residents objected to the gay romance. In reality, the film is not as much about the love of two men as it is about finding one's self and discovering a feeling of belonging which is universal. All the cast members are superb. Academy Award-Winning Best Actress Louise Fletcher is one of many strong supporting players. The two stars, Arye Gross & Eric Schweig, are superb. This is first of all a wonderful love story. Secondly, the film champions diversity represented by the GLBT community. Thirdly, it is equally a story about love and diversity within that community. This film deserves a far wider audience. It is most definitely a "feel good" film to be watched often. The film views how lovingly Big Eden celebrates special holidays and the sweetness of life itself. The copy that I received from Amazon is actually a two-disc package: the feature film beautifully transferred to DVD plus a second disc with documentary features about the actors, the film, and other commentary.

Probably one of the best queer movies I know

Reviewed in Germany on July 31, 2021

Verified Purchase

Really!! I may not have watched every big queer movie that exists (I don't think it's human possible to watch EVERY queer movie 😔 sadly...) but I think it's still safe to say that this is my favorite and will remain it for a long time. The positivity of the movie and its characters, the love that one feels for them.... How every character is fleshed out, even the ones that only appear for a few minutes... How the whole town supports this wonderful, shy man (Pike Dexter) and loves him - its wonderful.

And especially for the time it was made (2000) this is an incredible movie (just think about the fact that Brokeback Mountain was made 5 years later and well...was a lot sadder (tho probably 😁, sadly, more realistic for its time...). I think its kinda sad that you for sure have to search long for a movie made today (!) that is as positive as this one (and with a leading, gay, native American characters)... So I wanna thank everyone involved in the making for this wonderful, wonderful movie!!! And...I'd like to include a quote by Eric Schweig (Pike Dexter):

““I just thought, ‘Oh well, you know, it will probably be the first and only ever gay role I’ll ever get to do, so I’m just gonna go, you know, rock it at the audition, cuz I really wanna do it’ […] I think at the time, I just liked the material because it didn’t have any sort of… racist dialogue that I was so used to, and when you’re a Native American actor, you’re pigeonholed into doing certain types of roles. You sort of get used to doing period piece after period piece, and it’s no fun. And they don’t write gay characters for Native American people. It was great, because my character Pike, is like the diametric opposite of characters I was used to playing, who are like, swinging axes and shooting people, and Pike Dexter was the opposite of that, he was just a shy, introverted guy who was in love with… um, I mean the other character [Dean] that Tim DeKay plays, wasn’t sure whether he was gay or not, but Pike Dexter was damn sure he was gay and damn sure that he loved [Henry], Arye Gross’s character.”"

Again, such a wonderful movie❤️

A Utopea of a Film

Reviewed in Germany on October 22, 2005

Verified Purchase

What a wonderful surprise on all levels: script, director, cast, production value and -last but not least - emotional impact. This is probably the first gay-themed film that truly touched me on a very personal level.
Structured as a modern-day fable, "Big Eden" explores the same issues that peoples of minorities feel and deal with on a daily basis for having committed no other crime than being "different" from the "norm".
Normally, we "freaks of nature" seek a false sense of belonging in ghettos, or seek anonymity in the hustle and bustle of large cities - anywhere, as long as it is far away from our families or close-knit communities of "normal" people. Learning to hate ourselves at a very early age for being different (those of who shout "pride" the loudest are usually the one who harbor the most self-loathing), secretly wishing to fit in and be accepted as opposed to rebelliously boxing our way into a society that prefers evolution to revolution, most "minority peoples" become emotional cripples, incapable of accepting or giving real love - how can we, when we don't even love ourselves?
This is the reality that our hero, Henry Hart, lives in...that is, until he enters "Big Eden": a small, tucked-away community in Montana in which everyone knows everyone, where no one stands alone, where Christian love is more than a goal that makes us feel guilty for not achieving. "Big Eden" is a utopia in which people are judged for their goodness and not their race or sexual proclivities, in which the concept of family extends way past bloodlines.
Those of us who have spent their lives on the outside looking in, or anonymously minding their own business from within, like Henry, will feel awkward at first being surrounded by all of this unconditional acceptance and human kindness. We will want to shun it off as intrusive at best, not to be trusted at worst, like Henry. With luck, we will, however, get sucked into the healing quality of it all before reaching for the remote control to shut it out and label it as a painful fantasy that will never happen. Many will want to run from this "Eden" (as does Henry) before even giving it a real chance.
Those who stay with this allegory for a perfect world in which all people can live along side of each other, will start to understand that this new Eden will only be achievable, when we stop hiding and hating ourselves...when we understand that love and caring can be infectious - they could even cause a pandemic.
Does "Big Eden" really exist? No, not at the moment. Could it ever exist? Yes, it is possible, but probably on a global level highly improbable...after all, we are "only" human. That having been said, it should never cease to be our goal, and who knows, maybe it is possible on a smaller level - like the microcosm represented in "Big Eden", and that microcosm starts within.

Montana - Big Sky - Big Eden

Reviewed in Germany on June 9, 2010

Verified Purchase

Um es vorwegzunehmen: Ja, die Geschichte mag für die einen dahinplätschern. Ja, man kann sich nicht vorstellen, dass es ausgerechnet in Montana solche tolerante Menschen gibt. Ja und es mag für die anderen überladen sein mit Countrymusik.
Aber - Für mich nicht.
Ein grosses plus für den Film: Es geht nicht um junge schöne hübsche sexbesessene Mannen, die die grosse Liebe finden, sondern es geht um die Liebe der man jahrelang Hoffnung gibt und dem Stern, den man verblendet durch die Hoffnung, gar nie gesehen hat.
Untermalt wird die Hoffnung durch die spektakuläre Landschaft Montana's, der Jahreszeiten und Countrymusik, die vielleicht nicht immer ganz genau gewählt ist, aber nicht störend sondern schön ist.
Kurzum: Der erfolgreiche Künstler aus dem Dorf "Big Eden" kommt in NYC ganz gross raus und entschliesst sofort nach Hause zu fliegen, nachdem sein Grossvater einen Schlaganfall erlitt. Dort trifft er auf seine Jugendliebe, der allerdings 2 Kinde hat und von seiner Frau geschieden ist. Ein Indianer führt den einzigen Laden im Dorf, wo alle Männer herumzuhängen scheinen und nur das Beste für ihn (Pike) möchten. Die Figur von Pike ist genial gepielt von Eric Schweig. Stoisch ruhig und starrköpfig bewegt er sich nie auf Stan Harts zu (Künstler), da er immer noch glaubt er wird wieder die Freundschaft mit seinem Jugendlover (Dean) aufleben lassen.
Gerade dieses NICHT reden und NICHTS sagen macht die Spannung und doch die Ruhe im Film aus. Im Gegensatz zu BBM haben die Protagonisten die Chance nach 20 Jahren doch gepackt.
Der Film erzählt aber ganz nebenbei auch die Unmöglichkeit eines Mannes 'out of the closet' zu gehen. Nicht weil die Umgebung es nicht akzeptiert, sondern schlicht weil er es nicht kann und nicht damit umgehen will. Dabei will er aber seinen Jugendfreund doch nicht verlieren. Eine Gradwanderung, die sehr gut angespielt ist, vielleicht in diesem Film zu kurz kommt.
Wenn jemand Berge, Natur und Countrymusic und alles was dabei schön ist gerne hat, dann ist dieser Film ein absolutes Muss.
Schade finde ich nur, dass so viele Filme von Pro-Fun nicht synchronisiert sind. Dieser Film ist zwar im Gegensatz zu BBM und anderen noch gut zu verstehen, aber für viele wäre es leichter der Geschichte zu folgen.
Tortzdem würde ich 11 von 10* geben.

Love Requited & Unrequited in Rural Montana

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 23, 2010

Verified Purchase

This 153-minute long production is surprisingly very good. It was released in 2000 and filmed largely in the Glacier National Park in Montana.

There is nothing pretentious about this film, but equally nothing profound. It is not a proto-`Brokeback Mountain'. It's just a simple and gentle tale of love required and unrequited in a rural Montana community, but where the three protagonists are all male. It's well-written, well-acted, well-directed and produced (although the opening scenes in New York City are a little hammy). And there is not one sex scene! The lack of big names in the cast adds a certain sense of authenticity to the proceedings.

There are nine deleted scenes amongst the extras as well as thirty-eight minutes of interviews with the writer-director, the producers, and the cast and crew. The writer-director, Tom Bezucha, tells us that he wanted to explore issues of intimacy between gay men and also wanted to express the view that there is no such thing as a typical gay man. More important was the fact that even where there is no bigotry, gay men still have the same problems to deal with as everyone else.

One gripe is that the DVD presentation of this film is in the 4:3 projection, when it was clearly released in a wider format. Another is the use of one of my pet hates, a Country and Western soundtrack, but in this instance it fits in quite well.

In the flood of dreadful gay theme movies...

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on April 4, 2011

Verified Purchase

comes up "Big Eden" as one of few survivors.
The story is quite simple: there is a guy called Henry (artist, living partially in closet) who must come back to his home town. There is also Dean, his straight former bf (and secret love) and Pike (hunky native american who appears to be in love with our little painter).
The last, but not the least important is the Big Eden itself. I think every gay would like to live in such gay friendly oasis :) It is quite unrealistic, but, hey! This is a film, which should entertain.

There are some weak plots in it, no doubt. Like the one with the girlfriend of Henry(in some parts the actress gets on my nerves). Or his staying in a closet even though everybody around knows or suspect.
The role of Grace Cornwell in the Harts family is not clear too.

It is not a masterpiece, but if you look for a nice story, well played (well, at most of its part), without loud queenies and muscled dummies - this is one for you.

I bought the UK version (blue-white cover) of the dvd and I am bit disappointed with the quality of disc and extra features. There are no subtitles too.
