Anyone ever heard of this? I saw leading man Matthew Montgomery -- who looks sort of like a discount version of Eric Bana/young Richard Gere -- in "Long-Term Relationship" and it wasn't so great. (The love interest, David Moretti, reminds me so much of my actor friend Eric.)

Montgomery was also in a movie called Role/Play which I enjoyed.
I enjoyed Role/Play. David Moretti can't act his way out of a paper bag.
Why would you ever need to act your way out of a paper bag...
Ha so cool to see this movie getting attention already. My good friend Jake wrote the film and its his first script to be turned into a film.
This actually looks halfway decent for a gay flick. David just got done starring in a play in New York. Pretty sure he can act.
A "discount version of a young Richard Gere/Eric Bana?!" Why so nasty? Matthew Montgomery is an established, critically acclaimed out leading man who's also a producer and writer in gay indie films - check with TLA regarding his cache in terms of dvd sales. He's in his early 30's. Matt's starredin "Redwoods," "Role/Play," "Back Soon," "Socket," et.al., and the flawed "Pornography, A Thriller," for which his performance garnered an excellent review from your former employer's film critic. He's incredibly down to earth and nice, professional, currently completing his BA in LA and about to pursue his Master's in Film in the Fall. The fact that he's courageous enough to pursue his career as an out actor - which has severely limited his career options (agents, managers, etc.), unlike a lot of the closeted himbos that you feature from time to time - says a lot about his character. He's not a Reichen, Chris Salvatore, David Moretti, et.al., not a famewhore/tabloid queen, kinda under the radar - there really aren't that many Jonathan Groffs, Daniel Robinsons, JTFs or NPHs - so why the bitchy tone? "Discount?!?" Most of his fans would compare him to Paul Rudd rather than Richard Gere or Eric Bana. I'm proud to count Matt as a friend. Please feel free to check with Matty Maggiacomo, Matt Rettenmund, Queerty's Daniel Villarreal or "OLTL's" David Fumero and they'll confirm that I'm not some crazed internet loudmouth nor am I his publicist, manager, agent, etc. If you're not familiar with Matt's work, why not research him before you post such a snarky piece. At least determine whether or not you think that he's talented based upon the quality of his acting resume, not just some low budget indie film. I really expected more from you.

Well Kenneth, not real impressed with your resume or your comments on Matthew Montgomery and David Moretti. You might do better if you actually saw the film before you comment on their acting abilities... but that would make to much sense for you.
