CGiii Comment

An uninteresting, unattractive gay man spouts on and on and on...and then gets the hunk - which really does stretch the imagination too far.

It is rubbish...but, mildly amusing - raising this slightly above its like-minded contemporaries.

The(ir) Blurb...

'29th and Gay' is the movie for the gay everyman. Following a year in the life of James Sanchez, it's a story about a guy rapidly approaching thirty, who doesn't have a six-pack, full head of hair or a boyfriend. While his best friend Roxy, an actress-turned-activist, struggles with showing him there's life beyond the glitz of the disco ball, his other friend, Brandon, one of those gay boys comfortable in his own gay skin, works on getting James to at least talk to a boy. Feeling out of place in the world of circuit boys, caught between his Hispanic-American heritage and being gay, we watch James find his place in the world, realizing that life is in the journey, not the destination.
