Tiger Orange

A finely wrought drama exposing issues past and present between two estranged gay brothers, set in a small California farming community."Bad boy" Todd returns home from his wild city life to reunite with older brother Chet, somewhat upsetting the quiet, very regular and mostly closeted lifestyle of the latter.Family resentments surface, especially regarding the past with Chet having been burdened to care for their dying father alone while Todd was away "living it up". And Todd's continuing promiscuity has all the prospects of creating social havoc in the small town.Keen observation of small town life, the differences and similarities between gay siblings (observed as boys as well as adults) and the eventual bonding of the brothers are all well handled by director and co-writer Wade Gasque, always in a touching and believable manner.Nice performance by fellow co-writer and star Mark Strano as the older brother and a scene stealing one by Frankie Valenti (aka gay porn star Johnny Hazzard), backed up by a sterling supporting cast make this short (76 minutes) film a potent and very satisfying experience.

This movie is really good as two brothers come to accept their dad death. The one who left was in porn for awhile the other stayed in a small town run the family company coming to terms family and themselves.

Whether gay or straight, story line was very true to life. One son takes care of parent, the absent one blows into town with issues to set things right. Drama was real, ending a little simplistic. Overall I liked it.

This is one film that I purchased not because of its story but the fact the Frankie Valenti has a lead part. As annotated on the front cover "It's never too late to come home." This verbiage sums up the story behind the film in perfection. NJMJr!PS I can watch this film over and over again, and get more out its message each time. The interaction and competition of these two brothers is a true lesson in humanity and brotherly love! It is just a great film! NJMJr!

This is a film about two brothers who happen to be gay. But It is really about their relationship with each other, and all the baggage that comes with it over the years ending is just up in the air

Love it

Both brother's are gay.. One in the closet and the other one out and reckless... The story was a little hard to believed, but the acting somewhat hale it together.. They should of had the actor Dan Futterman played opposite Frankie Valenti. Maybe Mark Strano should of had Jesse Archer played his brother. To me the casting wasn't right or left.

great dynamic's insightful

This has a great mix of family drama and comedy that never gets too serious but deals with problems in a realistic manner. It is way better than I thought it would be, but movies from Wolfe Video are generally of higher quality than other independent gay themed films. The acting is great, the story line is believable, and the overall production values are very high. I loved it simply because it did a great job of mixing life's dramas, comedy and family issues together in a true (sometimes too true) manner.

Excellent movie ....Well filmed and well acted ...I enjoyed the characters and the theme ....Family dynamics Some nudity and implied sex ...Well done and entertaining...I certainly recommend buying this

so-so movie

I like it very good
