 Other Spiritual Movies November 28, 2008
I knew a film maker who died very suddenly and I remember thinking: "What does a film maker leave behind?" This thought was the seed that sprouted the movie: Beatific Vision.
I found myself thinking of a secret film that a character would leave behind when he dies. Not one he wished not to be found but one he planned to be found. More than a final will and testament this film was a "Beatific Vision", a view into the future of all characters and a clear mapping of the coincidences that would occur.
As I began to write the screenplay the voice of the Angel started to speak softly and occasionally. Upon many re-writes the Angel voice was vieing for main character status. I tried to reel in the angel but he (Angel Chad) wrestled control away from me.
When another close friend was passing to the other side, she added a strong dose of acceleration to the writing process. There now are so many Angels (most recently my Mother) involved, I feel I am at best the living hands to this project.
When I was a small boy my parents used to call me: Angel Michael when they wanted my behavior to change. I actually grew up thinking I was an angel including my sprouting scapula wings. Today, I do not think I am an angel but I surely believe that I am their vehicle for expression on earth.
Thank-you angels for this "angels on earth" experience!

 Absolutetly bad October 27, 2008
I would prefered not to buy this movie, it was bored and the actors were as bad as they could. There's nothing interesting in the movie, not even the sex scenes.
 Liked The Happy Ending Best September 6, 2008

This movie isn't the greatest, but for a gay movie it's not that bad. There was a lot of sex, but the one full frontal scene turned into a rather strange public service announcement. I enjoyed the happy ending the best. The dynamic of the his relationship with the sweet black guy from the park was a little too stark of a contrast with his life. You can easily imagine them breaking up about a week after the movie ends. The deleted scenes/outtakes were funny, the best one is where an actor tells everyone a joke.
The lead actor is very good August 21, 2008

I think people are WAY too hard on this movie. It deserves more positive reviews particularly because of the lead actor, Nick May. He does a fantastic job creating a character who you can really sympathize with. He's this young kid who gets tangled up in a 3 way relationship with two older men (believe me, there are lot of old guys out there looking for that) and he realizes that nobody really cares about him. The two older guys go to visit their family and ditch him on Christmas. The boy ends up finding himself turning to sex just to get some affection. He tells his hookups he's going to kill himself just hoping that somebody will care enough to tell him not to do it. I really felt bad for this character. His parents disowned him and his sister is horrible too. The actor does a brilliant job of making this character feel like he's all alone in the world.
There are a couple of horrible scenes in the movie that should have been left out. One involving a Santa and Mrs Clause jumping around and another involving an orgy. The orgy was just exploitative. Probably to try and get more people to watch the movie. Which is a shame because it takes away from the serious subject matter.
Anyway, I hope Nick May finds more work because he's a really good actor.
Not such a gem. August 17, 2008

This movie had it's moments, and it was worth watching once, but I wouldn't call it a "gem". Hard to see where that adjective fits in, but to each their own.
Not bad, not good, just an average gay themed movie.
