"Logan" (Windham Beacham) is selling his house after his wife was killed in a car accident. His buyer is "Gil" (Matthew Montgomery) and after a few chance meetings, the two start to hit it off. Both ostensibly straight, the former stays over one night at his old house where he sleepwalks into, well suffice to say that the dynamic of their relationship changes profoundly. Their association has not gone unnoticed by "Spencer" (Artie O'Daly), the brother-in-law who feels losing his sister and his friend of ten years is too much; and when "Gil" tells his gay best friend "Jamie" (Bret Wolfe), he proceeds to try to set him up with a couple of hunks. It transpires that "Gil" has been to prison, and as that past comes back to haunt him, the pair realise that they have something completely unexpected in common - a thing that could reduce their friendship to rubble. It's watchable, this, but there is an awful lot of dialogue; there are too many characters and the ending, well it bordered on the supernatural and the ridiculous - and I am not sure it really worked. That said, the acting from the two in the leading roles is adequate (even if "Logan" needs to change his underwear supplier) and the film is engagingly quirky, if completely forgettable, and passes 80 minutes without effort (on anyone's part).
