So many gay films flaunt sex, naked men, and the pride of lack of commitment the men in the movie seem to feel when they have so many men who love them, rather than one. Boy Culture takes the path of many gay movies, but doesn’t end up where you expect it to go. The film centers on X, who is played by Derek Magyar. X is a male prostitute. He has two roommates named Andrew (Daryl Stephens) and Joey (Jonathon Trent). X is in love with Andrew but Joey has feelings for X. It’s one big gay love triangle.

Boy Culture explores the life of a trick and the constant need to avoid commitment for so many gay men. On its own, this wouldn’t equal too much, but when you add in Gregory (Patrick Bauchau) you have a whole new story. Gregory enlists the services of X, but rather than using him for what he’s worth he opts to wait until X wants to give it as much as Gregory wants to take it.

Throughout the film we begin to see a softer side of gay cinema and it leads to a profound sensuality that is unmatched by the average gay film. While unexpected, the love that is shown is one that is perfectly portrayed in every way. Boy Culture may start out like every film but it leaves us surprised and satisfied all at the same time.

I was expecting less when I watched this movie. However, what I ended up with were excellent performances and an interesting story that I wanted to see unfold. The characters were enlightening in that interesting way and the movie just had this appeal to it that others in similar genres seem to lack. While you will see some of the same old stuff there is enough newness in this film to keep you wanting to watch and to make you happy you did when it’s over.

Bottom Line: If you are a fan of gay and lesbian movies this is one you will want to check out. Of course, if you are not interested in intimacy, sex, and naked men you might want to fast forward to the more emotional touching and less physically touching scenes. All in all, this one is worth watching. If you are unsure of the premise you might want to rent this one first, but if you’re looking for something that steps out of the box, this is the movie for you.
