Maurice girlies (gender-neutral) it's my duty to inform you that a Vietnamese LGBT movie channel have made a fan reconstruction of the 1987 movie, by adding all deleted scenes (which include establishing wayyyy earlier that Alec works at Durham's, establishing Alec's bisexuality, Maurice's beautiful ending monologue to Clive, and many more) resulting in a movie that's almost 3 hours long, and uploaded it to youtube (with English subtitles!) here!

#EDIT: this is not an official version! per someone's request in the replies i feel the need to mention this is NOT official lmao #the 2h20mins is the director's cut #EDIT 2: I DID NOT MAKE THIS WTF LMAO #maurice 1914 #maurice 1987 #Maurice #clive durham #maurice hall #alec scudder #e. m. forster #my posting #3rd degree failpost #mauriceposting

“All that came out of the chaos were the two feelings of beauty and tenderness that he had first felt in a dream. They grew yearly, flourishing like plants that are all leaves and show no signs of flower.”

- Maurice, E. M. Forster

A book I love

[atlanticistic]

anyone who could write a book about E. M. Forster and not be aware of his intense, almost religious, faggotry is not much in the way of a critic

- Gore Vidal (in: Palimpsest, 2002) on Forster's biographrer Lionel Trilling who in 1943 wrote a whole ass book on him, without noticing he was gay

Then darkness rolled up again, the darkness that is primeval but not eternal, and yields to its own painful dawn.

― E. M. Forster, Where Angels Fear to Tread

[text ID: I seem fated to pass through the world without colliding with it or moving it — and I'm sure I can't tell you whether the fate's good or evil. I don't die — I don't fall in love. And if other people die or fall in love they always do it when I'm just not there.]

Maurice has the best plot of all time. Are you classist? Do you struggle with internalized homophobia because ur boyfriend refuses to touch you? Try Poor Person Dick! It Will Heal You. and then it does. 10/10 no notes

#I'M JOKING I LOVE THIS MOVIE A LOT AND ITS INCREDIBLY MEANINGFUL TO ME. BUT ITS ALSO FUNNY #my posting #maurice #maurice 1914 #maurice 1987 #e. m. forster #mild failpost #mauriceposting

"Dining at the Reform I met EMF, and ate with him. Very lucky, as I’d not seen him since Christmas, and I can’t afford to see him as seldom as that, since he is probably my most intelligent and sympathetic friend, and it always does me good to see him." — Siegfried Sassoon (March 11, 1926)

"I enjoyed seeing you the other day, and as I probably shan't see you again for 18 months am moved to write you a line. I think your anti-social and self-centred life has a good deal to say for it if you will face its consequences, and not hanker after the best of two worlds. You are full of illusions and they are worrying you and perhaps stopping your work. You think you want people to come and see you, then you funk their arrival and go out and don't even provide rock cakes that are fresh for their tea. I know you're different from the majority and this isn't a scold – only a tentative tip." — E. M. Forster (March 20, 1927)
