I Do – the movie
Beautiful urbanites steam up the screen in this ensemble family drama about a complicated love triangle from film maker Glenn Gaylord (Eating Out 3, Leave it on the dance floor).
To stay in New York City, gay Brit Jack (David W Ross “Quinceanera”) convinces his lesbian best friend Ali (Jamie Lynn-Sigler, “The Sopranos”) to marry him.
Things get messy when he falls for a sexy Spanish architect while his commitment to his brother’s widow (Alicia Witt) and his young niece complicates his decision either to stay or to follow his lover.
“I do” cleverly examines the complications of immigration issues in the absence of marriage equality for LGBT people on a Federal level, while also presenting a nuanced adult drama that resonates deeply amidst the current fight for U.S. marriage equality.
Now showing on BFI London – London Lesbian & Gay Film Festival
