FILM
Cut Sleeve Boys
In a comedy/drama that looks critically at the “gay Asian experience,” Mel (Steven Lim) and Ash (Chowee Leow), two aging gay British-Chinese friends, confront issues of ageism, body image, and love. Mel is an “aging scene queen” who struggles between one-night stands and true romance, and Ash is alienated by London’s gay landscape of clones and meatheads. (Ken Cinema)
Rocket Science
Remember the insecurity and melodrama of being a teenager? Writer/director Jeffrey Blitz explores that time in life through a compassionate comedy about a 14-year-old named Hal (Reece Daniel Thompson) with a stuttering problem. His erratic stuttering often leaves him feeling inadequate around school-mates. Hal tackles this issue by joining the school debate team. (Hillcrest Landmark Cinemas)
Death at a Funeral
A satire directed by Frank Oz (Bowfinger, In & Out) and starring award winning British actors’ Matthew MacFadyen (Pride & Prejudice) and Rupert Graves (V For Vendetta) centers on a seemingly dignified but extremely dysfunctional family who reconnect for their father’s funeral. (La Jolla Village Cinemas)
