Boys In The Band

synopsis


Academy Award® winning director William Friedkin (The French Connection, The Exorcist) and playwright Mart Crowley serve up the acclaimed, groundbreaking film adapted from Crowley’s hallmark off-Broadway play – a witty, perceptive and devastating look at the personal agendas and suppressed revelations swirling among a group of gay men in Manhattan. This sensitive yet humourous adaptation of the stage play, performed by the original cast of the stage production, is one of the first films to openly address gay issues in a matter-of-fact style that largely avoids stereotyping.

Harold (Leonard Frey, who delivered an Academy Award® nominated performance in The Fiddler on the Roof) is celebrating a birthday, and his friend Michael (Kenneth Nelson, Hellraiser) has drafted some friends to help commemorate the event. As the evening progresses, the alcohol flows, the knives come out and Michael’s demand that the group participate in a devious telephone game unleashes dormant and unspoken emotions.
