Billy’s Hollywood Screen Kiss (1998) stars Sean Hayes (of Will & Grace fame) as a gay photographer who falls for his maybe straight model (Brad Rowe) and spends most of the movie in “is he or isn’t he?” musings. Who knew Sean had such a nice bod?

Forums
I’ve tried a couple of attempts at putting up a forum. I couldn’t get Xdforum to work like I wanted, it seemed to interfere with other plugns. I’ve got WP-Forum up and running and it seems to work fairly well for a light forum system that’s set up as a WordPress plugin. The plugin route just seemed better than trying to get an SMF bridge working.
Anyways, the link to the forum page is at the top of the blog. You’ll need to register to post but feel free to try it out.
Beefcake
Beefcake (1998) gives a dramatized account of Bob Mizer (Daniel McIvor) and his Athletic Model Guild (AMG). Joshua Peace portrays a young model in the AMG stables. The movie is interspersed with snippets of AMG films and pictures and with interviews with some of the AMG models and other photographers of the period. Joe Dellesandro, Jim Lassiter, and Jack LaLanne are some of the interviews with accounts of the 1950’s “body building” mags. The movie gives a look at the modeling and then at the legal challenges of Mizer and the “industry”.
