Following this assortment of carefully-selected news items, interested readers can find a refreshing pic of a hot man in underwear after the jump. Yes, we're serious.

  • Oscar winner Tilda Swinton received the "Career Achievement Honor" last night at the 2008 American Film Institute Festival. The gay ally has been a striking figure in cinema ever since she worked with the late, out auteur Derek Jarman on a number of films in the 80's.

While I enjoyed the movie, I thought it was a let down from the series. Maybe it was the running time (two and a half hours) or that practically nothing was done with the gay characters of Anthony and Stanford, but it just didn't have the spirit that the series did.

And today's Briefs are brought to you by...
