Leather Jacket Love Story

This movie is a charming, very sexy love story between a cute blond valley boy and an older leather biker type. It's a simple story, endearingly told and well directed. Sean Tatyran and Chris Bradley are excellent. The black and white filming gives the movie a nice arty house/50's feel.

A rare film in which a gay relationship is treated with the same normality as a straight one.

I've just seen this film, 15 years after the event. It begins with the usual tedious clichés of gay-themed films: scene queens, bad drag and dull hunks. Once we get to see the young hero, a beautiful young actor by the name of Sean Tataryn, the plot evolves well. He falls for leather jacketed Christopher Bradley and the show goes from there. I see that one reviewer (who clearly needs glasses) thought the young man ugly. Dear God, he was one of the loveliest kids I've ever seen on the screen, more, he could act, turning in a sensitive and touching performance. I am truly sorry his career didn't develop.The film is a few beats better than most gay-themed films, and it was Sean who lifted it for me from a 4 to a 6.

"Leather Jacket Love Story" tells a story about an aspiring teenager who leaves home and falls in love with a hunky grown man who is 11 years older than him. Their relationship is, unfortunately, rather toxic. It's hard not to remind us of "Call Me By Your Name", and I must say I enjoy this low-budget production much more than the overrated Hollywood hit which everyone has been crazy about. They handle the age gap better and all the characters are way more likeable.

However, with such a promising premise, the story is quite rush and under-developed; I wish it were longer. What's worse is that the film is in black and white. Why must they do that???

Anyway, this movie is my new guilty pleasure and maybe I should dive into pre-2000s queer cinema to find more overlooked gems.

I saw this film on whim at a gay pride festival in my city. I was anticipating some kind of tasteful gay romance/comedy or something inspiring to gays in love and relationships. Instead, my other half and I were subject to a poor plot and highly graphic x-rated material. Granted, I can appreciate a nude male body, but I think the message of finding love in the crazy world was muddled by all the 'eye candy'. The cinematography was very low budget, black-and-white, and very real. The actors were okay. The main character was nothing much to look at, and the other guy (his love interest) just seemed to old and experienced for that boy. Kyle's best friend in that mansion is just disgusting. There were some funny moments with the coffee house scenes and the drag queens. The worst scene, which made me ill to my stomach, was that brothel (or whatever it's called) with all the men in cages and on the stairs doing some freaky stuff!! I can't imagine what the non-gay community might think about us if they saw that, and it dosen't surprise me why some people have little or no respect for the gay community. The film seems to concentrate TOO MUCH on dated stereotypes of gay men (leather bars, drag queens, promiscuity) rather than on real world issues. For those who plan to watch the film, please realize that it does NOT represent the gay community as a whole, just certain parts. There ARE those who live normal lives and are in long term relationships, and act just like everyone else. Take it from me, this is probably not a movie to see with a long term lover. But if you're single, horny, and with your friends, then this movie serves its purpose!

A sweet may-december romance between an ugly young poet and sexy well-hung biker into kink and of course, leather.There is a lot of nudity with well-hung muscular men and some very ugly smart ass young guys too.Thank God for Older men.The movie moves in two directions at once,featuring the wild sex that the older man is used to...There is a stripper with a nice body and lots of Uh hum....reason to be proud of his body.Then there is the sappy poetry the young kyle writes.A nice turn by the drag queens as defenders of the community and Mink Stole as usual steals the show.
