The Man I Love DVD $24.95
"Charming, gorgeous, spirited and breathtaking." - CHICAGO GAY & LESBIAN
INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL
What gay man hasn’t sat beside a pool and dreamed of declaring his love to a
beautiful straight boy whose Speedo fits just right? How many of us have dared
to hope that we might actually get to peel the swimsuit away, or that our love
might even be returned?
Well, for the irrepressible Martin, just dreaming and hoping are no longer
enough. Martin falls for the straight Lucas the moment he sees him leap from
the high dive, and decides to take a leap of his own. Within minutes he
declares his love to Lucas, who is less than thrilled. No one is more
surprised than Martin, then when his seemingly hopeless infatuation ends up
bringing him friendship, passion and even true love.
This tender story of two lovers who find the meaning of life just as one of
them is preparing to leave it will both warm your heart and break it, and have
you smiling through your tears. Throw in a mother who roars around town in a
pink Mercedes with outfits to match, AIDS activists fighting for better
treatments, a deaf drag queen who signs his routines instead of lip-synching,
a gay wedding and beautiful locations in and around Marseilles, and you have a
uniquely French but touchingly universal love story.
