Straight to DVD?


Does the fact that this has already been on Logo and has been picked up by Wolfe mean that it is not going to be released into the theaters? If so, that is a shame because this is one of the most unique gay films ever made. I just saw it at the San Francisco LGBT Film Festival. This is one of the few gay movies that is aimed at both straight and gay men. This is definitely more of a "Guy's Movie" than a "Chick Flick" (I hate that term). Some of the humor is of the 40 Year Old Virgin variety (which is meant as a high compliment because I loved that movie) and there is more female nudity than male nudity (which I'm sure Logo edited out). You could take even a slightly homophobic straight guy to this movie (even someone who would never go to see Brokeback Mountain) and he would have a great time and maybe learn something by the end.

I like how all the characters are treated respectfully, even when they are struggling to accept their brother's homosexuality. You know most will come around in the end but the journey feels real.

It would be a shame if this goes straight to DVD. At the very least, I hope it's picked up by a Premium Cable network which has a mixed audience and will show it uncut and without commercials.
