werewolvesrcuddly Trevor, you're an idiot. Here you have a great guy that is willing to do anything for you and what do you do????? You let "friends" be a deciding factor on whether you stay with him and move to NYC or remain in LA.And you, "FRIENDS", how can you call yourself his close friends by pouting and trying to find fault why he shouldn't move to NYC since it's been a hard road for Trevor finding someone that he can finally feel comfortable with. I would not consider you quality friends if you're only thinking of yourselves. Don't use length of friendship and health issues to guilt someone into staying permanently in your life.Trevor you will never find happiness now that you've thrown away the one good thing to come into your life in a long time. Dude, (I had to throw that word out there), you deserve the loneliness you're going to receive for a long time now. Trust me those friends won't be able to fill the void you're going to have now.
Janko007 Trying to plumb beneath the usual emotional shallows of twentysomething L.A. gay life, Holding Trevor sometimes succeeds, but mostly comes off as a vanity project for writer-star Brent Gorski. A lad with limited screen presence, he plays a protagonist caught between a longtime boyfriend-turned-junkie, an improbably perfect Mr. Right and two high-maintenance, brattily annoying best friends. Holding Trevor comes off as Joan Crawford-esquire, star-flattering melodrama on an Amerindie scale. There are several quite well-written, well-observed scenes; director Rosser Goodman delivers a polished product with solid tech values. But a vanity-project air still pervades Holding Trevor, from the scrawny stars frequent shirtlessness to his incessant fawning-over by Kranskis character.Melissa Searing and Eli Kranski (who is also that hoty that every movie must have or so it seems) gave good roles, Gorski is better as writer, Brannan as musician... Best scenes are sex scenes, that's indeed tastefully simulated sex. Music is grate, especially Brennan's singing (and song writing). Not so bad, G&G will do it better next time!
Ly I was fortunate to see Holding Trevor and this film can and should propel all the principles into more film work.Brent Gorski wrote the script and stars but he has written story lines that enable each of the 4 main characters to shine.Director Rosser Goodman shows us a believable look at a tight-knit group of friends in LA. (Please don't think: 'The Hills'. These friends live probably in the flats -- geographically and perhaps philosophically miles away.) They're gay, straight, funny, caring but these aren't 'sit-commy' friends. I'm sure if you see this film you'd say: 'I know somebody just like that.'Goodman strikes just the right tone of humor and pathos. We can relate to the twists and turns life takes while we're trying to find happiness. On top of that -- good music, too! Sometimes the phrase "low-budget movie' may not inspire one to go see it. But, that would be too bad because honest, heartfelt films made by passionate filmmakers should be supported.
TOM O'LEARY I was fortunate enough to catch HOLDING TREVOR today at OUTFEST, the Los Angeles Gay & Lesbian Film Festival. I think it is really charming. It is beautifully directed, very funny and ultimately very moving. I thought a group of 20-somethings was going to bore me to tears. But the characters are vivid and interesting. The directing and acting are superb. Brent Gorski, the writer and star, is really a wonderfully talented filmmaker. And he is very, very easy on the eyes. One of the sexiest screen actors I have seen in ages. The camera loves him and so will audiences who catch this delightful movie.It's funny because now that I think of it no one in the movie really does "hold" Trevor. But I realize the title is a metaphor for Trevor being adrift in life. So, never mind.BRAVO!!!
