Eating Out (Opening Night)

Friday, October 15, 8:00pm

Take one part teen sex comedy, one part sexploitation, one part madcap farce, and add a huge injection of wild one-liners and you have Q. Allan Brocka’s amazing feature debut. Brocka expertly mixes conventional film genres to create a new hybrid sex comedy that will take you from hysterical laughter to titillating arousal (and back again) in mere minutes.

Caleb is a hunky sensitive straight guy with a bent toward aggressive girls. When he sees Gwen at a party in the process of loudly dumping her newly gay boyfriend, he is instantly smitten. There’s just one problem: Gwen likes her boys straight in the sheets, but gay on the streets. So, Caleb’s roommate Kyle (Jim Verraros of “American Idol”) hatches a plan: turn this metrosexual into a homosexual and Gwen will pounce. Pounce she does—all over the idea that Caleb should date her very sexy roommate Marc, who also happens to be the man of Kyle’s dreams. So it’s full-steam ahead with the plan, but soon enough the sexual confusion and tension boils to the surface; climaxing in one of the hottest and most unique three-way phone sex scenes you will ever see. With everyone awash in sexual orientation confusion, how far can this plan possibly go?

Skilled direction, accomplished performances, and laugh-out-loud humor are why the Advocate calls EATING OUT “simply one of the funniest, sexiest gay films in a really long time.” Three Dollar Bill Cinema is proud to open the Seattle Lesbian & Gay Film Festival with a feature film by Seattle native (and University of Washington grad) Q. Allan Brocka, now an L.A. up-and-comer, named by Variety as one of five gay and lesbian directors to watch.
