Everything Is Free

The voice over intro sets the stage: Christian's brother Cole is coming to Columbia, too, because "he's just had a manic episode from a bad break up." Manic is the upside of bi-polar. Depressiveness is the downside. Bi-polar is a serious mental illness.

Ivan is admittedly self-loathing, having affair after affair with unavailable straight men.

The surrounding characters are full of joy, esp the gender fluid one. But we don't get very far into their psyches.

It's a bad mix from the start, but the sexual tension is well portrayed and we can't help but watch the proverbial train wreck.

The ending left me feeling as though they deserve each other. Pathetic tropes both in desperate need of therapy and a supportive community.

Great topic that needs to be explored, written about and even filmed about...however this movie falls way short of doing the topic any justice. Too much attempt at the typical "artsy-fartsy" approach at movie making. Something quite common in the Gay movie Genre and most definitely with Broken Glass Pictures. Story line was lost, acting (other than Peter Vack) was mediocre, and so many more failures plague this movie. I hope someone can take this topic and do it justice. It really could be a good movie. Yes, gay men do fall in "love" (more like infatuated) with straight men, and yes there are "straight" men who have not come to terms with their sexuality. Yes, I am gay.

I liked this film. The story and characters were interesting and Brian Jordan Alvarez is very watchable. Good cast of supporting actors.

This movie had so much potentia, but unfortunately it is one the most discombobulated pieces of art since......since the last Jackson Pollock...worth a watch but it ain't no masterpiece. 😏

The whole film is just so cringe that it deserves a place on tiktok.
