Four Letter Word

USA 2007 87min
Dir: Casper Andreas
Starring: Jesse Archer; Charlie David; Cory Grant; Steven M. Goldsmith; J.R. Rolley; Virginia Bryan   

Fabulously superficial, gorgeously coiffed Luke (Archer) is happy and content with his life, which consists of enthusiastically shagging his way through gay Manhattan by night, and lazily assisting at a sex shop by day. His ecstatic bubble bursts one night when the deliciously macho Stephen (David) accuses him of being a ‘gay cliché’.

This sends the playful and outrageous Luke into a flat spin of hilarious self-contemplation as he half-heartedly attempts to find meaning in his life. While Luke becomes absorbed in his quest, his friends, colleagues, new lover and the members of Sexual Compulsives Anonymous find it increasingly difficult to come to terms with Luke’s witty quips, blatant flirting, daffy introspection, unsuccessful stabs at fidelity, and paranoia. All the while, they all have to deal with their own out-of-control love lives, alcohol dependency and a multitude of other issues associated with living.
