Don't Bother
30 July 1999
This movie is extremely inane and illogical; it is predicated on the premise that a cute young college kid cannot get laid on campus--- IN NEW YORK CITY!!! There is some decent photography but none of the characters are interesting and it is a good example of the lazy thinking that goes into a lot of "gay cinema": mainly that if you put some goodlooking guys up on screen, then it will fly as a dramatic piece. A lot of audiences may buy into this half-baked nonsense despite some very implausible situations and rather tiresome body-worship politics but there is much better gay cinema out there: check out the films of Todd Haynes or Barbara Hammer for instance... "Friend of Dorothy" is tiresome nonsense, strictly gay film-fest filler.
