Set in the 1870s, Song of the Loon tells the story of young man named Ephram MacIver whose search for love and happiness leads him into the arms of Cyrus Wheelwright, a mountain man who lives among Native Americans. The movie praised by the New York Times reviewer was Song of the Loon, a forgotten milestone in queer cinema released in 1970, long before Heath and Jake were born. This isn't another article about Brokeback Mountain. "A romantic all-male saga of the Old West," reads the movie poster, "that intertwines a beautiful love story between two men against the sweeping rugged grandeur of the American Wilderness." A reviewer for the New York Times agrees, describing the film as "unabashedly romantic," a story about love "set in a North Woods" that provides an Eden-like backdrop for innocence lost. The film is more a love story than a blue movie.
In truth the sex, of which there is little, is rather tame.
The promotional material for the film hints at "nude scenes and masculine kissing," affection made all the more remarkable because both leads are straight.
