\" Another Gay Film\" gets a Director's Cut

\" One More Gay Flick,\" Todd Stephens' rowdy 2006 movie, has actually simply been re-issued on DVD in a 15^{th<\/sup>Anniversary edition. This Supervisor's Cut includes even more raunch to this queer sex comedy concerning 4 horny gay teenagers on a quest to shed their rectal virginity.}

The film, a really gay throwback to the adolescent sex comedies such as \"American Pie,\" overflows with gay stereotypes (and also a couple of racist ones). However it features a standout efficiency by out gay star Jonah Blechman as Nico, one of the most effeminate teen in the group.

Blechman, that was a producer on the movie, chatted regarding \"One more Gay Film\" in a current Zoom interview.

When I initially check out \"An additional Gay Flick,\" I thought I would certainly never ever be a part of something similar to this. It was way as well crude and rude, and I 'd never done a comedy. But it bothered me just how much it troubled me. I had some judgment there. When I realized that as well as checked out what the film was, I thought it was great and also revolutionary and something to champion. Initially I wished to play Andy [the lead] I was scared of playing Nico, a stereotypical queen. I had judgments and also my very own worry concerning being seen by doing this. Some level of queer embarassment-- definitely in my generation-- was the queen as well as the femme. Working with Todd, he adjusted me to bump it approximately reach this area that became this extremely cost-free character. It opened a room for me to get comfortable with my femininity in a way I never ever had as well as blow it out of the water. It certainly made me a lot more comfortable with my maleness having gone so far out with my feminineness. It was enjoyable to play, as well as all the makeup and outfits helped boost that personality.

I assume it is necessary that wit is an invasion for processing pity. How do you speak about these subjects? Comedy actually does provide us accessibility to that. The film champions tales from lower shaming as well as sexuality in different means and also humanizes it. The straight neighborhood has gotten to play with it, and procedure it with all their teen sex comedies, why wouldn't we have our own?

This was made in 2006. I am surprised just how much [the movie] does stand the test of time in a manner that still pushes the edge. Todd [Stephens] was explaining every stereotype he could. Ashlie [Atkinson, that plays the raucous lesbian, Muffler] obtained reaction for being the bull dyke she was portraying. Lesbians did not desire just that depiction around. If the film has four various lesbians, you might show maybe 4 various stereotypes of that world. We did it with four queer males, so perhaps it wasn't as offensive due to the fact that there was much more [gay male] depiction on screen. I am delicate to any person who would certainly really feel offended and also intend to apologize for that. But of course, there are things that are definitely dated.

I have actually been [carrying out] my entire life in one kind or another. It has actually constantly been the lengthy ready me. It had not been concerning getting famous, it was about creating great work and also connecting with people and sharing humankind. That's the genuine pleasure of all of this. I am a writer and have actually had various interests that have actually taken me on various courses, and also various careers over time. Acting is now at leading edge for me once more, and that job suggests a lot to me.

I'm so happy to collaborate with Todd. \"Farewell performance\" was remarkable. We did the \"An Additional Gay Motion picture\" follow up with each other. We anticipated having more of the original cast, however representatives as well as managers because day were really protective. But I was all in. Todd and also I have actually undergone a lot of fires and also grown together with these jobs, so I'm constantly happy he thinks about me to work with.
