I Think I Do

I like this film and was pleasantly surprised when I saw it a few years ago. Another movie I'd like to own but it's not on DVD. Why!? This is well written story about friends and being gay and trying to deal with it. I recommend this to everyone

This is just so charming. It's funny and sprightly and very feel-good. After decades of providing anonymous musical vocals for Hollywood actors, Marni Nixon gets an engaging supporting role here as Aunt Alice. Somehow, that's just so right for this movie. I also especially liked Lauren Velez as Carol and Tuc Watkins as Sterling, but all the actors did a fine job (some of them aren't bad looking either).

What really strikes a chord with me, though, is its wish-fulfillment. This film is the ultimate revenge fantasy of anyone who's ever seen - or been - a gay man cruelly disdained by some gorgeous heterosexual object of desire. It revels in poor repentant Brendan's predicament...but it does it in the sweetest, most adoring way possible.

I saw this at our local art academy, where it was apparently brought back by popular demand. The audience was laughing and hooting throughout more than for any other movie I've seen. I was as gleeful as the rest of them.

The annual gay romantic comedy for 1997, "I Think I Do" has some very clever moments. The characters are a bit broadly drawn but are still believable, and the plot stretches credibility a bit but still manages to work.

The best moment, however, happened offscreen. At one point, one character consoles another by saying, "You're trying to hard. If you just stop looking, the right guy will come along."

To which someone in the audience yelled, "IT'S NOT TRUE!!!!!!!!!"

This is my favorite gay film. I wouldn't say its the best - Beautiful Thing or Boys In the Band - I believe have that honor, but its non stop entertainment from the first scene to the last. Alexis Arquette is brilliant as always and Tuc Watkins is a perfect supporting player for Arquette. The other actors hold their own as well. Guaranteed to please almost any audience.

This movie is a total riot. I enjoyed the cast as an ensemble. Tuc Watkins is outstanding as the aging Soap Star, and Patricia Mauceri (who co-starred with Watkins on One Life to Live) is a total delight. The ending is a little fantasy like, but who cares, I had a great time watching it - and you will too!
