Alec secareanu is gay

“A British Brokeback Mountain,” says IndieWire. “Yorkshire’s answer to Brokeback Mountain,” adds The Independent. “A Brokeback Mountain for the Yorkshire Moors,” echoes The Telegraph. “Dales answer to Brokeback that’s a very British love story,” chimes in The Guardian. Good grief.

A litany of critics have drawn sluggish comparisons between Francis Lee’s God’s Retain Country and Ang Lee’s perennial 2005 “gay film.” While not entirely off-base in talking about two men who fall in treasure with each other on the pastoral countryside, that’s where the similarities terminate, frankly.

24-year-old Johnny’s (Josh O’Connor) life on the Yorkshire Moors as a sheep farmer is endless toil, which is sketched quickly in this Lee’s debut feature as our protagonist rattles through basic functions he strings together. He throws up last night’s alcohol, he gulps down whatever’s there at the breakfast table, he engages in wordless sex with strangers at livestock auctions, he’s knee-deep in shit doing sheep things on the farm, he gets obliterated alone at his neighborhood pub,

A Josh & Alec- No-Personal Territory Appreciation Post The First

One of the things I love about Alec, Josh, AND Francis is how affectionate they are with each other. Whether it’s a hand on a shoulder, how all of them easily link their arms around each other at awards and promos, or this, how Josh hangs easily over Alec’s, both smiling and comfortable.

Josh always looks SO Joyful to be around Alec and it’s one of my favorite things. They actually always glance happy to be around each other. Josh’s smile is the sweetest, brightest thing and I love Alec’s arm resting on Josh’s leg. They are so close in each other’s vacuum and Josh’s hand holding Alec’s shoulder is everything

This is circa God’s Own Country because they both have the hair and they look like babies. There’s a proprietary energy to how Josh has his arm around Alec’s shoulders that I am totally here for.

I’m wondering - do *all* men* stand this way? Because I know no men who stand this way.

Alec’s beard is REALLY intense here and I like how Josh is kind of leaning his head close to Alec. And like maybe Josh has had one too many beverages but Alec’s eyes are so compelling here and you can notice Josh’s dimpl

God’s Own Country: An interview with the stars, Josh O’Connor and Alec Secăreanu

Is the Yorkshire accent really so hard to understand? This was pondered at the God’s Own Country screening at the 2017 Berlin International Film Festival, since this English language movie was presented with English subtitles. This curiosity aside, the feature is an sophisticated depiction of the adore that blossoms between Johnny (Josh O’Connor) and Romanian farmhand Gheorghe (Alec Secăreanu) Happily, director Francis Lee’s film manages not to espouse so many of the tragic stereotypes that are common in many gay love stories, and there’s a hopefulness that overcomes the bleakness of many of the situations depicted onscreen. We sat down with Josh O’Connor and Alec Secăreanu at Berlinale.

How did you both become involved in the project?

JOC: I didn’t comprehend Francis, but I was sent the script help in 2015, in the summer. I read it, loved it, and had to do it because I had never decipher anything like it. And then I met Francis, and we just clicked, and then we met some Romanian actors.

5 Talkie Minutes with Alec Secareanu

God’s Have Country is a 10/10, award-worthy film about love. A beautiful story of loving and trusting each other, in the grand and rainy panorama of Yorkshire.

JohnnySaxby (JoshO’Connor) is a farmer from Yorkshire whose existence takes an unexpected turn when he meets Gheorghe (AlecSecareanu). Despite the initial dislike and reluctance of letting himself go, Johnny establishes with Gheorghe an intense relationship. Director and Writer FrancisLee turned a gorgeous story into something real, genuine, in every aspect: from the growing feelings between Johnny and Gheorghe to the daily tasks of a farmer.

Gheorghe is played by AlecSecareanu, a 33 years-old promising actor from Romania, his translation got him his first ever nomination as BestActor at the 2017 BIFAs (British Independent FilmAwards).

We met him in London, at the CommercialTavern in Shoreditch, in preparation for the BIFAs Ceremony. Needless to say, he was lovely from the very first moment: Alec is down to earth, polite, but also fast with a joke. It was immediately clear that he was going to be an appealing and engaging person t
