P Stop is the story of two workg-class gay men their thirti - Gabe, a buildg ntractor (played by Bill Heck), and Ernie, a lumber-yard worker (played by Marc DeAnda) - a small town is divorced but still close to his ex-wife and dghter; the man he loved and left them for has dumped him and moved far away.
Bee of s unnventnal stcture and slow pace, has been wily cricized by amatr reviewers of gay this is by far the bt gay movie I have ever seen, and I've seen hundreds - all the on that are worth seeg and many more that aren't. When the two men fally meet, 's the sweett, hottt stuff ever shown on any kd of screen anywhere on and Ernie are the realt uple ever any gay movie, and Bill Heck and Marc DeAnda are the bt actors who ever played gay characters.
Every word, every sound, every movement, every gture, every glance of an eye or lift of an eyebrow is of any kd - gay or straight - jt don't get any better than this.

It is the story of two mid-thirtyish gay men, Gabe and Ernto, livg separate but not totally dissiar low key workg class liv the same Texan small town. One of the bt gay themed films ever. That do not mean is void of angst and nflict; however, this film do a better than average job of balancg the very real challeng many gay men face wh a thread of hope and an emphasis on personal fulfillment.
It do not pict gay people as livg a bubble, nor do e straight people as mere props.
P Stop A fely nuanced portra of two gay men a small Texas town slowly fdg their way toward each other, "P Stop" is a low-key but ultimately eply satisfyg third feature om helmer/-scenarist Yen Tan ("Ciao"). * pit stop gay film *
I highly remend P Stop to anyone who enjoys movi about everyday people and thk would be an pecially worthwhile movie to watch for anyone wh a gay fay member or iend.
Am 56 and was searchg for gay themed movi on Youtube when I me across this move.
I have long dreamed of the type of gay movie I would like to see this f the bill every way. You have two brilliant actors playg mascule gay men small town Ameri.
