High Tide

Beautifully shot, this quiet, affecting film is a "gay film" that goes way beyond the conventional broken-hearted gay love story that we've seen so many times. It's tender and universal and is, at base, about about two men who both feel out of place, even within their own queer community. The two beautiful stars, Marco Pigossi and James Bland, bring the story to life and the cinematography captures the moody end of season beauty and lonliness of Provincetown. It's modern, moving and unsentimental. Great star turns from Marissa Tomei and Bill Irwin round out the cast. I saw it with a big group of people, some gay, some straight, some other, and everyone loved it.
