Trick

Synopsis:

Gabriel, an aspiring writer of Broadway musicals, meets Mark, a muscled stripper, who picks him up on the subway. They spend the night trying to find somewhere to be alone… forced to contend with Gabriel’s selfish roommate, his irritating best friend, and a vicious, jealous drag queen in a gay dance club. The sun rises on a promising new relationship.

Quick Thoughts:

“Trick” is an older film, but quite delightful one to watch! I recall friends having this on VHS… yes, THAT old! Yet this farcical Rom-Com keeps giving us one crazy twist after another in ways that make us laugh and even smile. It’s a delight to watch, though clearly a small independent film. It truly is a staple of queer cinema, and was far ahead of it’s time when it was released in 1999. If you’ve never taken time to watch this classic, find yourself a copy today of this queer music film. “Trick” is that enjoyable!
