Genres & Description

Action Comedy Drama

7.7 / 10

It's Harold's birthday, and his closest friends throw him a party at Michael's apartment. Among Harold's presents is "Cowboy", since Harold may have trouble finding a cute young man on his own now that he's getting older. As the party progresses the self-deprecating humor of the group takes a nasty turn as the men become drunker. Climaxed by a cruel telephone "game" where each man must call someone and tell him (or her?) of his love for them.

“It’s not a musical.” Hilarious! - @Saturday, August 11, 2018 5:12 PM

🤔 A classic in our Gay arcives. It's an excellent play/movie. Should've been a least nominated for it's screenplay. If l had to pick just one actor to get an Oscar perfomance nomination it would be Ciff Gorman. - @Sunday, April 8, 2018 5:07 AM

Forget the datedness of the film - all I can think about is the datedness of this trailer! I mean, it's almost 3 minutes of very weird cuts - @Tuesday, January 26, 2016 4:54 AM

This was a great film with a great cast, but as Cliff Gorman became more prominent, it was hard NOT to think of him as Emory ! LOL - @Tuesday, July 21, 2015 8:42 PM

It makes me so sad that young gays have never seen (or even heard of) this pivotal piece of cinema but can name every contestant on RuPaul's Drag Race. I'm not even that old (37) and I've got no time for modern gay culture. Give me "The Boys" over a reality show about finding the perfect pair of tucking panties any day! - @Friday, May 15, 2015 1:31 AM
