Bobby Riley (Pete Jones), an Irish Catholic, is trying to come out to his three brothers, one of whom is a priest, with the help of his well meaning but interfering sister. The 2004 film chronicles his attempts to come out and his attempts to put it off at the urging of his sister, his lover, and his lesbian “beard.” We see the way his brothers (Nathan Fillion, Stoney Westmoreland, Dev Kennedy) deal with the situation (or not) in different ways. Not the greatest movie ever, but entertaining.

Skin and Bone (1996) follows Harry (B. Wyatt), Dean (Alan Boyce), and Billy (Garrett Scullen), three male prostitutes who work for a female pimp who keeps a tight reign on her boys. When they try to leave and go on to knew lives, they find themselves under her brutal thumb. If the DVD quality were a bit better, the eye candy might save the film, but as it is, it’s a bit long and a bit slow.

In Coffee Date, Todd (Jonathan Bray) is a straight guy whose free loading brother (Jonathan Silverman) sets him up with an internet dating ad. Getting to the coffee shop for the blind date, Todd realizes that his date Kelly (Wilson Cruz) is a guy and his brother placed the ad in the “men seeking men” section. Todd and Kelly get back at his brother by pretending to be a couple, but soon the joke spirals out of control as everyone in Todd’s life quickly becomes convinced that he’s gay and that his protestations of being straight are part of his being in denial. A cute independent comedy.
