The Last Lovers on Earth

The Movie the AIDS Establishment Doesn't Want You To See
Many movies make us see things in a different way but a few give us new eyes. The Last Lovers on Earth is one of the latter. Made on a shoestring and filmed in Boston, this bold, uncompromising film is based on one of the most provocative collections of stories about the gay politics of AIDS ever written. In the tradition of the great underground films, The Last Lovers on Earth uses zany dark humor and satire to speak truth to power. The film presents three hilarious and outrageous stories about an unusual mix of gay characters trapped in one of the worst medical and political catastrophes of our time. This is not a film that only gay people can appreciate. Gay and straight audiences have laughed their way through this brilliant intellectual black comedy and left the theater wondering what is true about "AIDS" and what isn't. In some ways this film is "the Catch-22 of AIDS" and in others it is the "Uncle Tom's Cabin of AIDS." Thoughtful viewers of this film have realized that they have seen a movie that will be talked about a hundred years from now when people try to figure out who recognized what was really going on below the surface of official AIDS policy and rhetoric--and who just followed the Pied Pipers of AIDS and HIV fraud.

Early Reactions to the Film
"If the medium of film can be said to have become numbing, in the Huxley sense--a medium of reassurance--Ortleb once again explodes our comfort zone. He did it with his radical newspaper, and now he is doing it with a low budget, strange, utterly different and stirring film, that is more like a series of surreal plays than a movie. It goes to the place that can only be called an ideological terra incognita. His dark vision of the psychic narrative of AIDS is played out here in the classical form of a futuristic nightmare that is by turns exasperating, shocking, poignant, and even gravely funny." --Celia Farber, Author, Serious Adverse Events: An Uncensored History of AIDS
"On the cusp between humor and terror, The Last Lovers on Earth brings to fruition the techniques of underground films, Brechtian drama, and the Theater of the Ridiculous. There are three stories (or parables) told in rotation. Each makes an incisive point, and the film as a whole makes one huge point -- a simple message, which few gay men have dared to apprehend. Every element of the film is first-rate."--John Lauritsen, Author, The AIDS War
"Intensely cerebral. Intensely clever. Intensely funny. Intensely sad. Like a message in a bottle the story floats in and out of vision but ever onwards carrying its message. Finally, when it lands on the shore, it's nothing like we think. Never has it been more truthful to say 'Science advances funeral by funeral'". --Valendar F. Turner, The Perth Group
"The movie is a profound and funny look into the abyss that AIDS has become. Through light and dark deadpan humor, it begins to address the myths, fraud, and hype that have become the accepted AIDS paradigms: that gay men and sexual promiscuity are the "cause," that AIDS testing and drugs work, that demanding drugs and vaccines for everyone is going to save them. It challenges AIDS activists, AIDS researchers, and thinking people in general to have a critical look at this house of cards that is the AIDS Establishment." --Jonathan Campbell, Health Consultant
"If the AIDS establishment has a hit list, this film is at the top of the list." --James D'Eramo, Medical Writer and Journalist
"This movie, made on a shoestring, is the nightmare AIDS bureaucrats don't want to have. It reveals their earnest attitude for what it is: a coat of polish over backroom scientific corruption of the lowest order." --Jon Rappoport Author, AIDS INC.
