Big Gay Love

I've seen many folks like the character that Jonathan Liesecki plays in Big Gay Love. He's a chubby guy afraid to put himself out there because he doesn't want to get hurt. The sarcastic wit he develops is part of an armor coat to protect him from the world of hurt. Sad to say but in the gay male world physical beauty is prized a lot and many people don't look beyond it.

Enter Nicholas Brendon late of Buffy the Vampire Slayer who is an apsiring celebrity chef and you would think that party planner Liesicki and Brendon would be a match. But both have a lot to overcome.

I liked this bittersweet story of contemporary gay life. The film is well cast and the story has a universal identification in the gay world. Take note of Ann Walker as Liesicki's mother, she's a hoot.
