“Searching for Love” (Oct. 2018), is a nice 11-minute film by
Ed Fritz, from the “good old days”. A
young man (Max Claude as Adam) searches for love by trying to match chat
messages on his phone to his own photographic memory of “glances” from the past.
How often do you think someone you see
in an ad or gay film is someone you’ve met?
The last part of the film turns into serial speed dating in
a café and is less than impressive.
I think the film was shot in Philadelphia.
It is listed as age-restricted (but there is little that is
explicit). The central character is a “stereotyped”
blond white guy, but at least one of his intimate partners is a POC. I don’t know if that’s politically correct.
Since Blogger prefers you not embed age-restricted films, I’ll
include a bonus: Sam Cushing, gay gymnist
and pianist (I think in Chicago) talks about his future in challenging
times.
But I know that a lot of people will say, well, yes, young
affluent gay white men living alone are ironically the safest (and luckiest) population
right now. It’s easy to stay out of trouble.
Some of them say they are trying to help businesses figure out how to
rebound from the pandemic and that is the most charitable thing to do – help small
business.
