Plot:
First-time director Tommy O'Haver garnered a lot of critical acclaim for this contribution to the "new queer cinema." But he seems more clued in as to its weight than the reviewers. O'Haver rightly ca...( read more

Good movie overall, nicely acted, well written and directed. Nice to find out that Sean Hayes can do more than camp.
One of the best gay romances ever put on film. It's an every day guy looking for more than just the next best thing. Sean Hayes (pre-Will & Grace) is great...
With hot and sexy "Brad Rowe"along with a few great looking skin scenes in this film as well from him and Sean Hayes (Pre Will And Grace t.v series).

Sweet and gentle... the search for a romanticized romance with Sean Hayes being... well, sweet and gentle.
If I could I might give this film 2.5 stars. I read one reviewer stating that this was not a "gay" film. I do not know how that statement could possibly be made. Not that it is in any way a problem, and yes the character does go through things that we can all relate to, but for crying out loud, Hayes starts the movie by saying, "Hi, I am a homosexual" and begins speaking to the trials and tribulations of being a homosexual in an overwhelmingly heterosexual world. So let us call it what it is...a movie about navigating the waters of gay life that even a heterosexual can relate to ok? This movie had some potential. Starving artist seeks love in all the wrong places. Finds possible love in a man who is unsure about his own sexuality. The notion of "being there" for someone when he comes out of the closet like a mentor (I have a friend who has stated that he wished he had someone to guide him when he came out). It also had some very brave scenes where one might see this film on stage rather than a screen. Where it falls short? The acting was terrible. So terrible that it overtook everything in the film. You never cared about any of the characters except Sean Hayes (because this is the only character who they built...and they didn't do the greatest job of that). His monologues about the self were done in such a monotone voice that I found myself drifting away as he spoke. It wasn't that they weren't interesting it was simply that he was stating them as if he were on downers rather than the dreamy, reminiscence that they were shooting for. Also, the constant interjection of 5+ minute drag queen love songs...they were fun to start, but they went on forever...kinda like I am doing now. I wanted to like this film. Really, I did, but I didn't. It had a chance to make something great out of itself, but did not get there. Rent it on a dare if you like, but I cannot say this film is one to recommend.
Funny and sad. Heart break and rebrith. This movie was very well made and the actors did a wonderful job pulling you in. I really found myself on edge cheering on Billy. If your looking for a good gay movie theres one right here! :)
wow.. sean hayes is amazing here... i absolutely love him.. and the storyline is REALLY really sweet. I love the fact that it was about a photographer and his polaroids.. i love how they used the polaroids to tell the story.. being a photographer and polaroid collector.. this is one of those movies ill remember forever. :) good to watch with just about anyone~ other than ur homophobic parents that is. :P
I really didn't watch T.V that often.. so missed out on seeing the beginning of Will and Grace.. which is probably a good thing.. because the first time I saw Sean Hayes was this movie.. He is SOOOO much more than "just Jack".. Oh well.. charming movie.. not the most socially important gay movie of all time.. but charming..
Great to see Sean Hayes "pre Will and Grace", and this is a fun movie, nothing too serious. It has a beaut story line, and is executed well enough to keep the interest. Great support roles, with some rather hunky ones in there too.
Sweet, funny, relatable. It also has some really gorgeous dream sequences that recreate famous movie scenes. Surprisingly understated.
Before Will & Grace, Sean Hayes was here. The question was how sharp are our instinct on the guys we like? Gay or not?
