Trick (1999)
A young gay aspiring musical theater writer/composer searches in vain for someplace to bed down with a sexy go-go dancer in this sweet-natured romantic comedy set in Manhattan. Gabriel (Christian Campbell) wants to compose musical comedies whilst his best friend and confidante Katherine (Tori Spelling) wants to star in his productions. On the way home from a local gay cruise bar, Gabriel notices Mark (Jean Paul Pitoc), one of the dancers from the club, catnapping in the subway. After flirting and exchanging sloppy stares at one another, Mark joins Gabriel at the latter’s small one-room apartment only to find themselves disturbed by a pet dog and Katherine and his heterosexual roommate and his roommate’s girlfriend. Their attempt to find a suitable boudoir leads them from one location to another and along the way they discover that their attraction might extend beyond a one-night stand affair.
TRICK is obviously unrealistic but definitely one entertaining film. The fine acting of the three leads combined with some witty lines and funny moments not to mention the comical musical numbers are enough to make you feel good whilst enjoying the film.
