Fruitcake

4.5

Synopsis:

Two sisters arrive at their parents’ home for Christmas with boyfriends in tow. When the family leaves for a last minute trip to the mall, the two boys are left to mind the turkey. What ensues will surely become a memorable holiday for all.

Quick Thoughts:

“Fruitcake” – both a derogatory slang nickname for gay guys, and also a traditional Christmas dessert. But only one is actually present in this Queer Christmas short – and it’s not the actual dessert! Full of little surprises, “Fruitcake” is a great Queer Christmas short film. Although a bit dated and perhaps not the greatest production values, there is plenty of quirky charm and flirting to bring plenty of laughs. And what an ending – I just wish we got to see the aftermath! But we’re given something better, we’re left to create our own ending of happiness and joy. Find yourself a copy of this whimsical short and give it a watch. I hope you enjoy it as much as I!
