Directed by Jim Fall • 1999 • United States
Starring Christian Campbell, John Paul Pitoc, Tori Spelling
The Doris Day–style romantic comedy gets a gay 1990s update in this charming, sweetly sexy tale of two Greenwich Village guys—shy aspiring Broadway composer Gabriel (Christian Campbell) and hunky go-go dancer Mark (John Paul Pitoc)—whose would-be one-night stand is continuously thwarted by circumstances beyond their control. As the boys bounce from apartments occupied by troublesome roommates to piano bars to night clubs in their quest to get it on, the misadventures pile up and a connection grows that may last longer than one night after all.
