This new gay romantic drama from Everett Lewis, the director of the art-house hit Luster, is out this month on DVD.
 
The half decent story revolves around an LA architect called Rusty (Patrick Tatten) who's not known for his depth of character who meets a cute but rough drifter Denny (Dale Dymkoski) and falls in lust, kidding himself it’s love. Rusty's then taken for a ride and milked in more ways than one. We've all been there.
 
This is the classic story of a bad boy with a killer smile catching someone on the edge of boredom who then throws is all away for some passionate sex and get's ripped off left right and center because he cant' see the brambles for the wood. They then spiral into a dangerously mad place where the passion is all.
 
At its heart it’s a story about a guy who falls for the wrong guy for what he kids himself are the right reasons
 
Apart from the sex scenes this film drags in pace, it’s very slow and I got bored very quickly, I was hoping something was going happen and it didn't.  The crepuscular filming and the undefined performances left me rolling my eyes a bit, thankfully their bodies were more defined and the sexy bits almost make up for what's lacking in the end.  Although it looks fine I simply didn’t give a damn about any of them in the end. Perhaps that was the point?

Even if this film doesn’t grab you by the balls I would heartily recommend the film company promoting this who have a huge selection of classic films, gay art-house interest and LGBT(ish) films, check ‘em out.
