EVENT: MR. RIGHT Friday, February 5th 7pm • Ellis Auditorium
"Insightfully explores the struggles these folks go through as parents, children, lovers and friends, sexual orientation notwithstanding. Mr. Morris' script boasts the witty, bitchy Brit banter without relying on the obvious."
— New York Cool Mr. Right dir. Jacqueline Morris2006 / UK / 86 min Louise thought she'd met the man of her dreams. But it all went wrong when she introduced him to her gay friends... Harry hates being a TV producer and dreams of leaving his job to travel the world. He loves Alex, an aspiring actor who is struggling to create an identity for himself as a performer. Rugby player William's nine-year old daughter is intent on sabotaging his relationships with new boyfriends, and he's finding it difficult to let Lawrence, a soap star, into his life. Lars is a handsome sometime model kept by Tom, a successful artist, who will forgive his every betrayal so long as Lars doesn't leave him. Rather than being polemical or crudely comic, it deals with adult subjects that affect us all. In a modern world where straight men are waking up to the fact that gay people are the gatekeepers of the cool in-set, Mr. Right gives a crash course on understanding how their clique works. The film features a hot soundtrack and includes a musical score by Toronto pianist Jacqueline Kroft. PRECEDED BY:  Pat's First Kiss dir. Pat Mills2007 / Canada / 4 min Pat remembers his first kiss in this darkly comedic animated short. |
