Your Man From _______?



The dialogue in reference to the baby goes something like "he looks like
your man from "labronski beat". What exactly is he saying. Who is this guy?
Does the baby really look like this guy? Is there a picture of this guy
somewhere so I can see it?

He is actually saying that he looks like "your man from Bronski Beat". Bronski Beat was an 80's pop group in England that had a couple of hits; the "man" he is referring to is lead singer Jimmy Sommerville, who does in fact look like the photo of the baby. Sommerville is bald (or else cuts his hair very close to his head) and has a sort of chubby face; he is also openly gay, which accounts for the line where Gleesan's character says "oh, the gay one" (I'm paraphrasing). If you want to see a picture of Sommerville just google his name.

Giallowax, Yes, thanks so much for clearing that one up! I had no idea what "the kid" was referring to. And now I get his reference to "Yah, the gay one, the gay one, the gay one." Classic. Thanks again!

Although Bronski Beat was formed in London, England, Jimmy Somerville, the band's lead singer, was Scottish, as he was born in Glasgow, so they were not an English band, they'd be classed as a British band.

Thank you so much!! I am glad you cleared that up for me!
