For its day, an amazingly frank depiction of a homosexual relationship., 6 May 1999
9/10
Author: Peter Burgess Griggs from New Haven, Connecticut

This film deals with a prosperous man who encounters a sleazy blackmailer who discovers that he is gay. (This silent rarity is a good reason for film preservation!)

A much later film "Victim", deals with a similar subject.
