| SYNOPSIS - LEATHER JACKET LOVE STORY REVIEW Gay male love stories often lure an audience with the promise of nudity, a titilation that they rarely deliver. That can't be said about this odd-couple-in- lust drama as it boldly fixates its gaze on the bodies of both the leads: a blond teen and an older man-stud. Why bring up the nudity first? Because that is the best thing going in this drama. Valley boy and aspiring writer/poet 18-year-old Kyle (Sean Tataryn of The Boys of St. Vincent), bored with his West Hollywood fag friends, finds his life dramatically changed after he meets 30-year-old Mike (Christopher Bradley), a pec-and- leather working-class carpenter. Yet despite their differences, the two fall for each other. That’s the story, but the more interesting aspect of the film (other than the flesh) is the ‘90s L.A. scene it captures. For within this bubbled gay universe lies nothing but gay bars, restaurants, gyms and pool side mansions populated by beautiful twinkies, mustached muscle men, denim daddies and leathered motorcycle queens. Forget the story, buy it for its travelogue values! |
