Alan (Larry Sullivan) is a young Republican in the halcyon days of Richard Nixon’s regency. He meets Tommy (Steve Braun) a gay activist he tries to interview for a book about the gay lifestyle of the time. Naturally, Alan falls for Tommy and their relationship comes to be after Alan has already turned in his anti-gay book to his publisher. Thinking the book will never be published, Alan doesn’t tell Tommy. And then along comes the hate mongering, she-demon Anita Bryant and the publisher dusts off the book. Many years later, they reunite and take the road trip they’d discussed a little too late.
Jill St. John puts in a small but hilarious performance as Alan’s accepting mother.
