CGiii Comment

And where exactly is the comedy?

Not to mention the talent - the distinct lack of...is in abundance.

But...he and his husband [Wash Westmoreland] went on...to do much bigger and better films.

Humble beginnings indeed...and, testament to dedication.

The(ir) Blurb...

We spend a week in the L.A. offices where the daytime TV show "The Love Judge" is written and produced. Jo, the show's large and loud producer, announces she is leaving the show in two weeks. Paula (driven and on Prozac) and Mark (gay and moody) compete for Jo's job. Mark, coming onto the first anniversary of the death from AIDS of the love of his life, is attracted to Bill, who claims to be straight. Meanwhile, Jeremy, a close friend of Mark's, is putting the moves on Bill. Leslie, Jo's overworked assistant, tells Mark she wants to be a writer (she even has a script written). How these relationships that combine work and friendship play out is the movie's subject.
