“What I’m interested in is how your career choices can affect your private life, romantically, or with your mom, your relatives, your friends, your hometown, and how media manipulates information – not newspapers or blogs, but the magazines that people impulse-buy that tell you what’s hot, and who’s not,” he said. “I’m thinking of how this culture has transformed the movies that we make and stories we tell and how artists are free – or not – to be themselves.”

Speaking at the “Matthias & Maxime” press conference, Dolan called out an industry double standard in which films centered around queer characters are almost always labeled “gay films” or “queer films” while movies about relationships between men and women are never defined by their sexuality. While “Matthias & Maxime” deals with a gay storyline, in Dolan’s eyes it’s as much a film and love story as one with heterosexual characters.

“This film is not gay, It’s life,” Dolan told press. “We never talk about heterosexual films. ‘Oh, I saw this great heterosexual love story.’ For me, it’s not a story of homosexuality or gay love. Ultimately, I don’t think that the two protagonists are aware that it is gay love. It’s love.”
