The Gist: A chance encounter late at night in a club brings Russell and Glen together. Their one-night stand, however, turns into something deeper when the morning comes and the two men, now clean and sober, start knowing each other better. The mutual attraction is evident to both, but their radically different lives and dispositions toward society in general will prove to be problematic.
The Bottom Line: Weekend is a very honest and unabashed look at friendship, gay life, gay men’s place in society and how the latter affects them, and a love story that’s both sweet and sexy. The direction is clear, unobtrusive, and competent and the actors do a very good job. This is the kind of gay-themed movie I wish they made more of.
Grade: 9
