Synopsis
Robert has been promoted to an overseas position which should leave him feeling ecstatic but the job means the inevitable breakdown of his relationship with his boyfriend Michael. As if that wasn't bad enough Nick (Steve Buscemi), his ex-lover, is slowly dying of AIDS. The going-away party won't just be a goodbye to the city Robert loves...

4.0 out of 5 stars A personal favorite, 27 Jun 2007
By Wendy M. Grossman (London) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I saw this movie in the theaters when it was originally released, and I've always been very fond of it: it was the first movie I'd seen that didn't make all the gay characters camp (as much as I liked Cage aux Folles..) but instead just showed ordinary people coping with difficult situations. The synopsis isn't quite right: the key character is Michael, who is simultaneously losing both his live-in lover (Robert) and his most trusted friend and former lover (Nick), the first to an overseas promotion and the second to AIDS. It's well acted and poignant, and if nothing else it has, in I think their earliest movie roles, the always interesting Steve Buscemi and Kathy Kinney as a kind, earth motherly artist light years removed from the role that's made her famous, Mimi on the Drew Carey Show.

2.0 out of 5 stars Decent watchable film. Good humour and well acted., 13 Nov 2006
By Leatherhood (London UK) - See all my reviews
Some good acting involved here. Easy going film, nothing too exciting but has good humour along the way. A bit confusing trying to follow some main storyline but it's a typical 80's gay decade story as depicted in the review. One guy wants to break away from his 5 year relationship and take time out, friends gather for a leaving party for him. I liked the party atmosphere and 'camp' humour along the way. Everyone looking for someone! Jimmy Sommerville background music popping up appropriatley. Not a sleeze movie but some good lookers in there! Well worth a watch but don't pay too much for it.
