CGiii Comment
Bartlett's one and only foray into the world of cinema...thankfully, he stuck to the theatre.
Stage acting does not transfer well onto the screen - ham, ham and even more ham.
The story...justified pederasty is just a little too offensive to be entertaining. It's a terrible advertisement for the older gay community.
No trailer...
The(ir) Blurb...
A love story with music. Gerald, celebrates his 45th birthday by buying a new Jaguar. He picks up his friend, Ian, who is only 15 and takes him to a pre-arranged birthday party. He becomes increasingly drunk and finally, the drag queen who was hired to entertain, bundles Gerald into the car with Ian at the wheel. They drive until dawn and when they eventually stop at a roadside cafe, Ian tells Gerald what he feels for him.
