    A quirky, romantic comedy about the complexity and frustration of finding a true love in the gay community. Marc is a struggling actor who finds an apartment in NYC by searching the obituaries. He lives with his out-of-work, eccentric fag-hag Cynthia. His best friend, Robert, is secretly in love with Marc, while Marc falls head over heels for flighty studio musician David. Things heat up as Marc's desire for David keeps him waiting by the phone, while Cynthia gets financially cut off from her rich parents and Robert struggles to express his feelings for Marc.

"Marc" (Michael Lucas) and his best pal "Robert" (Aaron Williams) need to find somewhere to live, so check out the deaths column in the papers and find an unoccupied apartment. "Marc" moves in with his friend "Cynthia" (Mara Hobel) and what quickly follows is a rather weak comedy will they/won't it romance. "Marc" espies a musical neighbour "David" (Hugh Panaro) and after a coffee in the stairwell he falls hook, line and sinker. His new amour already has, however, a boyfriend "Chuck" (Jonathan Walker) and, of course we know from the start that "Robert" has an huge crush on his friend but has no idea how/if to take it forward. The love triangle, ménage-à-trois thing has some amusing legs at the beginning but they quickly run out of steam and the film resorts increasingly to annoyingly over-scripted stereotypes about love, lust, frustration, musical theatre references and commitment phobia amongst young gay men. The presence of the "Cynthia" character seems specifically designed to irritate - she brings nothing at all the dynamic aside from get in the way of what plot there might have originally been while the film was on the drawing board. It's like two or three episodes of "Will and Grace" clumsily bolted together only without the wit or characterisations. I wouldn't bother, sorry.
