One of Them! (1998): cast, story & where to watch
1998 · Film
Released in 1998, One of Them! is a notable film directed by Stewart Main, running about 48 minutes. “Two gay teenage boys meet at a high school in the 1960s.” — that tagline sets the tone.
What it’s about. One of Them! was one of two dramas (alongside Niki Caro movie Memory and Desire) inspired by short stories collected in Peter Wells' 1991 book Dangerous Desires. It was made for TV One as a Montana Sunday drama. Set in Auckland, 1965, One of Them! follows Lemmy and Jamie, two teenage boys coming to terms with their sexuality. In the dark days before gay liberation, bullying and intimidation was rife, and while the boys flaunt their sissyness, their internalized homophobia wreaks havoc on their emotional lives — until they can admit to being "one of them".
Who’s in it. One of Them! stars Ciaran Pennington as Jamie, Cameron J. Watt as Lemmy, Stephen Papps as Frenchie Friggs and Ray Woolf as Mr. Stephenson, among others.
