I Think I Do

"I Think I Do" is a wonderful comedy drama about a group of college friends who are in search of love and stability. The film focuses on the complicated situation between two male roommates, who consealed their affection for each other even years after graduation. When two of the clique (boy/girl) get married, everyone reunites and gets to evaluate their own (mostly pitiful) love-life on the wedding day.

From the parents of the bride (who have nothing to say to each other) to over-the-top relatives, everyone has their two cents to add, in order for "the young ones" to have a wonderful life. Offering laughs every minute, this film entertains throughout, climaxing with a story-book ending.

The Sound Track, consisting of Partridge Family songs, is an added touch of class. Still considered "progressive", the film deals with the subject of homosexuality in the matter-of-fact kind of way that it should have been dealt with all along. There was no mention made at all of the fact that the bride and groom were an inter-racial couple; again, something that rightfully was treated without any big words of explanation. We've come a long way, but occasional "outrage" at films such as this one shows that we haven't arrived yet.

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!

A hugely enjoyable film, for gay men and all others too. It will have you on the edge of your seat to see if he does or doesn't. Some memorable one liners, and some excellent acting, this has to be up there with Beautiful Thing as an absolute essential for all gay men's dvd collections. Its all handled exceptionally well, with some hilarious set pieces. I'd recommend this to anyone as a real feel good movie, but not one that over does the sentimentality- get it now!!

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 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.
