Achieving a "6" on the Kinsey Scale
by Zeal (movies profile)
Jan 14, 2006
Billy’s Hollywood Screen Kiss is an entertaining romantic comedy starring Billy (Sean Hayes), our blatantly gay photographer, and Gabriel (Brad Rowe), the presumably-straight hunk he falls for. The movie is a cat and mouse tale – Billy meets Gabriel at a party and befriends him but the friendship becomes oddly intimate despite the fact that Gabriel has a girlfriend in another city, hurling Billy into a state of confusion. Is Gabriel gay? Does Billy have a chance with him? The film is twined with humorous comments, but in entirety presents some gay stereotypes and resolves with some sticky closure that leaves you feeling a little unfulfilled. However, it’s worth it for Sean Hayes, softer and sweeter in the role of Billy than the distinct foil of the ever-neurotic Jack presented in Will and Grace. Plus, there is only one pair of breasts exposed in the entire film; kudos therein. |
