Mark and Thomas have a master plan, to find Mark's son, James Anderson (Hank Fields) the love of his life once and for all. Meanwhile, Billy (Dustin Belt), a young gay teenager who has just turned 18 gets his first country kiss from his best friend Rick (Shawn Richardson) and is immediately caught and then thrown out of his house by his abusive father (Allen Poe). With no place to turn, no cash and no contacts, Billy hitch hikes to the big city. Confused, lost and running scared, Billy soon finds a help wanted ad posted in a local city gay café by James. Billy interviews for the job and soon accepts the challenge as the role of caretaker on the spot. He quickly learns about full responsibility, independence, not to mention real life lessons about being gay. Billy unexpectedly finds himself in love with James and builds a bond with Mark that is unbreakable. "An Angel Named Billy" is a heartwarming, funny and unforgettable story of an abused boy who in leaving his life of hate and mistrust is able to come to terms in his own way of being gay in a modern world. Finding new friends, unexpected love and a whole new way of life will never be quite the same again.

    O filme é bem fraco. Fraco mesmo.

    Os personagens do filme são todos estereótipos batidos de gays: temos o adolescente esquisitinho expulso de casa, a drag excêntrica, a cacura com péssimo corte de cabelo, a pintosa... Só faltou o nerd enrustido.

    E nem são os personagens que...( read more) irritam; o aspecto técnico é de uma amadorismo horroroso. E olha que o Dogma mostrou bem que o visual amador pode ser arrebatador, né?

    Péssimo também é o roteiro: uma incrível sucessão de clichês, com piadinhas imbecis e momentos com a finalidade de emocionar o espectador. Ah, vale lembrar também o péssimo momento musical do filme, que, creio eu, deveria animar o filme e mostrar uma espontaneidade dos personagens.

    A estrela completa vai de brinde, porque eu imaginei que poderia ser ainda pior. Não sei como, mas acho poderia.
