The 10 Year Plan
Posted on 8 March, 2020Whenever I want to watch a cute rom-com film, “The 10 Year Plan” is one of my regular choices! Given that this time of year is when everyone from Hallmark to Netflix are pushing out Rom-Com’s due to a specific commercial “holiday” [Valentine’s Day], a review of this film is quite fitting. A true Rom-Com requires three key things: 1 – Person A; 2 – Person B; Shenanigan that’s keeping the two lovers apart. All…

Are We Lost Forever
Posted on 3 November, 2020“Are We Lost Forever”, the feature debut film by writer/director David Färdmar, is still new on the scene in this very weird year of 2020 – but it’s already gaining attention. Starting off at the end of a relationship, we follow our leads, Adrian & Hampus, as they navigate the messy world of the post-breakup with all of it’s ups, downs, arguments, makeups, et al. (It actually started off as the Queer short film, “No…

Eating Out
Posted on 6 May, 2020[“Eating Out” is the first entry of the “Eating Out” Saga. To read my review for the next film, “Eating Out 2: Sloppy Seconds”, click HERE. To recap the entire saga, head over to THIS post!] This first entry in the “Eating Out” saga is shocking, comical, and enjoyable – but it’s also my least favourite film of the series. The concept for the script is great and rather new at the time – the…

eCupid
Posted on 14 February, 2021“eCupid” is a Queer RomCom that I watch frequently. Chock full of cutesy puns and quips, J.C. Calciano has created a film with an important message: don’t let an impromptu reaction to the dreaded “seven year itch”, often a result of stagnation and boredom, ruin your relationship! But not everyone is a fan; nor is this film perfect. Let’s break down why, despite some key issues, “eCupid” remains one of my favourite queer films. Synopsis of “eCupid”…

Fire Island
Posted on 10 November, 2020The Not-So-Good What to say… or rather, how do I justify scoring “Fire Island” a 0.5 out of five stars? It’s actually rather easy if I follow my rhubric! (And that’s without getting into the actually bad parts of the show) It’s reality-tv; there is no plot – so how can I rate something without a script to compare? The cast are not actors but real life persons playing themselves. Ok, there’s one or two I…

Queer RomComs For Valentine’s Day
Posted on 1 February, 2021It’s Valentine’s Day! A day where half the world looks at their partner with love and endearing tenderness – and the other half are still looking for their partner! (OK, add in a cluster of partners who can’t stand to look at their partner… but this post isn’t for them!) For those of you looking for cute Queer or LGBT RomComs to watch with your special someone – or for those of you, like myself,…

A Single Evening
Posted on 20 March, 2023I discovered Writer/Director Ashlei Hardenburg-Cartagena‘s queer short film, “A Single Evening” through the 2020 Wicked Queer: Boston Film Festival. I absolutely LOVED this short! However, it wasn’t until I looked into her other films that I realized she was also the director of another film recommended to me from Mattioli Productions, Role of A Lifetime. While both films are powerful and great to watch, there’s something about “A Single Evening” that spoke to me on…
