‘DOWN LOW’ REVIEW: GAY HEARTTHROB LAS GAGE GIV ZACHARY QUTO ONE HELL OF A HAPPY ENDG
Co-wrten by Las Gage, unapologetilly queer edy 'Down Low' imag the most trmatic first time a sexually experienced gay man uld have. * down low gay *
Down Low men keep their bisexual behavr a secret om their female partners bee they’re unfortable wh homosexualy and are aaid of the negative nsequenc of g out. But what I found bothersome is that a few of his signs seem to rerce homophobic stereotyp, which might only enurage prejudice.
He’s really homophobic to the pot which he ref to be around gay men.
First, there’s the scene om the first season of “The Whe Lot” where Jake Lacy barg to the rort manager’s office, only to fd Gage gettg his salad tossed (a history-makg moment for gay TV fans). And now there’s “Down Low, ” an over-the-top, bottom-trawlg edy that wants to be for the gay muny what “The Haner” was to the mastream — which is to say, wildly irreverent and credibly wrong. Starrg openly gay “Hero” villa Zachary Quto as Gary, a recently divorced, richie-rich zaddy hopg for a happy endg, “Down Low” don’t que unrstand s own tle — wh the Black and Lato muny for men who nsir themselv straight while havg sex wh other men — but that’s OK.

People say that celebry starts when the gay mors do. So who's ma our list of mored celeb-iend upl? * down low gay *
Like “Pretty Woman” on meth, the movie laced wh pop-culture referenc, rangg om “The Real Hoewiv” to “Sex and the Cy 2, ” and featur gay ins Judh Light and Simon Rex (still very much skeezy “Red Rocket” mo). Right off the bat, there’s a key difference between “Down Low” and “Bros”: Instead of tryg to expla thgs to the straight muny, Gage (who -wrote the script wh Phoebe Fisher, fully tendg to star) assum that horny gay men have let their hormon steer them to some pretty outrageo suatns, so the key appeal here is knowg that however regrettable your worst experience may have been, don’t hold a ndle to the unbelievably trmatic iatn Gary has store.
He and Gage want gay men — pecially those of a certa generatn — to overe their shame and embrace their te selv, to which “Down Low” says: Better late than never.
