Okay, I get invited to movie nights where Gremlins or the Bourne series are viewed. But now I am interested to see where these movies go:
- Issues 101: Within weeks of enrolling at California Beach College, Joe decides to come out of the closet. So when a hunky frat boy asks him to a party, Joe thinks he’s going on a date. At the party, Joe stirs up a boiling pot of sexual confusion as two of the frat brothers begin to vie for his attention — even though one of them is supposedly straight. And it doesn’t help that the others don’t want the rest of campus to know Joe is gay.
- Gone But Not Forgotten: Drew (Aaron Orr) is a forest ranger who meets yuppie Mark (Matthew Montgomery) after he falls while rock climbing. Mark wakes up in the hospital with amnesia and sees that Drew has remained by his side since the accident. Drew offers to move in with Mark to help him out until he regains his memory, which propels the two men into a passionate affair. But things start to change as Mark’s memory slowly returns.
- Yossi and Jagger: It’s a case of “Don’t ask, don’t tell” when two male officers in the Israeli Army, Yossi (Ohad Knoller) and Jagger (Yehuda Levi), fall in love with each other while stationed together at a remote outpost on the Lebanese border. Based on a true story.
- Eating Out 2: Sloppy Seconds: After breaking up with his boyfriend, rebounding college student Kyle (Jim Verraros) turns his attention to Troy, a handsome male model in his art class. Farm boy Troy claims to be straight, but an unconvinced Kyle decides to take him to a campus support group for “reformed” gays to find out the truth. Kyle’s silly attempts to prove that Troy is gay lead to a series of confusing hookups and farcical situations.
- Long-Term Relationship: Tired of the unsatisfying singles scene, Glenn (Matthew Montgomery) answers a personal ad and meets Adam (Windham Beacham), a handsome Southern man seeking a long-term relationship. The two hit it off immediately, but their initial attraction is soon put to the test. Glenn’s gay friends say he’d be happier playing the field again, but his straight pals encourage him to work at the budding relationship in director Rob Williams’s romantic comedy.
I have some friends whose Netflix queue was always chock-full of these tales and Gilmore Girls, but due to a series of events they’re not on Netflix anymore and I miss having that connection to all the hot new movies in Netflix’s “Gay/Lesbian” category. But now I know all my anonymous Atlanta neighbors will keep me up to date.
And Midtown Art Cinema, because they’ve been advertising for at least three months now that they have Another Gay Movie on DVD.
