CRAFTG A ROM-COM THAT’S TE TO 21ST-CENTURY GAY LIFE

Universal Pictur released Wednday the trailer for “Bros,” the first gay romantic edy to premiere by a major stud. * bros gay movie *

"While ’s sane to me that took this long to get this movie ma, ’s still credibly excg to me — and a real sign of progrs — that the same stud makg movi like 'Jurassic World' and 'The Fast and the Fur' is also releasg this R rated gay rom wh an all LGBTQ+ st, and wh as much passn and enthiasm as they release those other films, " Eichner wrote. "Nile Rivelli / Universal PicturDirected by Nicholas Stoller, "Bros" featur Eichner playg an openly gay man, Bobby, who stggl "to fd another tolerable human beg to go through life wh. In the trailer, Eichner's character is seen talkg on a podst about his experience meetg wh Hollywood producers about creatg a romantic film about gay people that "a straight guy might even like.

""They said: 'We jt want a movie that shows the world that gay relatnships and straight relatnships are the same. Unfortunately his other half Bobby played by Billy Eichner who wrote Bros wh the Director Nicholas Stoller is one of the most irratg gay characters I've seen on screen a long 's Billy the character I found annoyg not Billy Eichner bee the character is far to "woke ".

BROS REVIEW: A BIG GAY ROM THAT’S A BIG OLD MS

Want to watch Billy Eichner's movie 'Bros' onle? Here's how to stream and rent the LGBTQ romantic edy onle or buy a py of the gay film on Blu-ray/DVD * bros gay movie *

I'm sayg that as a mature age gay man that has experienced much of the LGBTQI history that Bobby Leiber nstantly refers to prervg the movie. I'm probably out of synch wh terms like Cisgenr, Genr Variant, Genr fluid and all the other current rrect pronouns plot is unrstandably simple for a rom- revolv Bobby Leiber, a born and bred New Yorker who hosts a queer history podst lled 11th Brick (bee as a cis whe gay man that's probably the brick he'd have thrown at Stonewall) as the director of the first natnal LGBTQ history mm is raisg money for The LGBTQI pl History Mm New York. His passn is LGBTQI + history and is passnate about the lack of tth historil characters and what he perceiv to be there "gayns" characters like Print Abraham meets his oppose temperament and physil appearance handsome Aaron and the differenc their terts and social patibily threaten to end their most important togetherns gift which is they make each other has been heavily marketed as the first Amerin gay romantic edy om a major stud featurg an entirely LGBTQ prcipal st (though Fire Island (2022) -also an gay romantic edy om a major stud featurg an LGBTQ prcipal st -was released earlier the same year Island did not get a full theatril release like Bros and my opn is a much better movie wh more believable characters.

The LGBTQ romantic edy stars Eichner and Le Macfarlane as a gay uple navigatg the plited onle datg world, wh a few obstacl — and people — thrown along the way.

WHAT TO KNOW ABOUT 'BROS,' THE FIRST GAY ROM- PRODUCED BY A MAJOR STUD

”The scene ntued, as Bobby walked through the exhib, liverg a lecture that enpassed homophobia, Nazis and, eventually, AIDS.

It isn’t exactly the first major-stud gay rom-, that rabow lrel probably go to 2018’s “Love Simon, ” distributed by 20th Century Fox.

‘BROS’ TRAILER: BILLY EICHNER STARS A STEAMY AND META GAY ROM-COM

Billy Eichner plays a moody podster who has sworn off relatnships, but jt might fd himself one anyway, this gay romantic edy. * bros gay movie *

Which means that the movie shoulrs two rponsibili: to liver a edy as r and rnchy as fans of Stoller, and Judd Apatow, a producer, would expect, and to te viewers, gay and straight, on the past and prent of queer liv and relatnships.

”But two s the entertament dtry had tght him that as a gay man, the Tom Hanks rol were not available to him.

And that even gay rol — “In & Out, ” say, or “The Birdge, ” or “Brokeback Mounta, ” which “Bros” briefly satiriz — were often played by straight actors.

‘BROS,’ THE FIRST BIG-STUD R-RATED GAY ROM-, IS FOR EVERYONE

* bros gay movie *

” Bee makg a gay romantic edy isn’t as simple as swchg out an X chromosome here and there. Universal Pictur“That’s not reflective of how gay relatnships functn, at least the on that my iends have, at least the on that I’ve had, ” Eichner said. “Gay men, particular, we have our own l, we have a certa way we behave.

“I thk he’d heard of Grdr, ” Eichner said, referrg to the gay datg app.

BROS IS A GOOD, GAY TIMENICHOLAS STOLLER AND BILLY EICHNER'S LLABORATN BRGS LGBTQ+ ROMANCE TO THE MASTREAM WH A MERRY SPLASH.BY RICHARD LAWSONSEPTEMBER 10, 2022PHOTO: UNIVERSAL PICTURSAVE THIS STORYSAVESAVE THIS STORYSAVEWHAT WORRI I MIGHT HAVE HAD ABOUT THE FILM BROS, THE FIRST STUD-RELEASED ROMANTIC EDY ABOUT GAY MEN THAT STARS OUT GAY ACTORS, ARE PRETTY QUICKLY ALLAYED DIRECTOR NICHOLAS STOLLER’S CHARMG FILM. CO-WRTEN BY AND STARRG EDIAN BILLY EICHNER, BROS IS CERTALY AWARE THAT ’S TAKG SOME BIG STEPS TO THE MASTREAM AND IS GNIZANT OF THE ATTENDANT RPONSIBILY OF THAT. BUT THE FILM DON’T LET SELF BE HAMPERED BY S ACPLISHMENT. INSTEAD, BROS LEANS TO THE GIDDY LTLE REVOLUTN OF S OWN EXISTENCE, VG THE DIENCE TO A GOOD, GAY TIME THAT HASN’T EXACTLY HAPPENED, THIS WAY, BEFORE. OF URSE, TO MAKE THOSE LEAPS TO THE MULTIPLEX ESYSTEM, SOME PROMIS HAD TO BE MA. STOLLER IS STRAIGHT, UNLIKE ANDREW AHN, WHO DIRECTED THIS SUMMER’S HULU-RELEASED GAY EDY FIRE ISLAND. JUDD APATOW, A PROLIFIC PURVEYOR OF STRAIGHT-BOY EDY FOR OVER TWO S NOW, IS A PRODUCER WHOSE FLUENCE ON THE FILM IS FELT THROUGHOUT. BUT BROS NEVER FEELS LIKE A GAY MOVIE WHOSE MANDATE IS TO BE PALATABLE TO STRAIGHT PEOPLE. THE FILM IS DIRECTLY DIALOGUE WH S OWN MUNY, OR AT LEAST SOME SUBSET OF THAT AMORPHO AND EVER-EXPANDG GROUP. EICHNER PLAYS BOBBY, A POPULAR PODST HOST AND PUBLIC W WHO HAS BEEN GIVEN THE CHANCE OF A LIFETIME: HE’S PART OF A MTEE ASSEMBLED TO SIGN AND PROGRAM THE NATN’S FIRST-EVER LGBTQ+ HISTORY MM. INTY IS AT THE FORE BOBBY’S LIFE, HE’S FASHNED ALL HIS TIC AND VOLUBLE OBSERVATNS ABOUT HIS OWN QUEERNS (AND, LET’S BE HONT, THAT OF OTHERS) TO A PRODIG REER. IN ALL THAT OUTSIZED ASSERTN, BOBBY HAS ISOLATED HIMSELF. (I DON’T THK ’S AN ACCINT THAT HE SHAR A NAME WH THE LONELY NFIRMED BACHELOR OF STEPHEN SONDHEIM’S COMPANY.) HE’S 40 AND SGLE, OUTWARDLY WARY OF MMENT FOR VAGUELY POLIL REASONS—WHY SETTLE DOWN LIKE THE STRAIGHTS?—BUT WARDLY WRACKED WH ANXIETY. HE FIGUR HE’S TOO HAIRY, TOO LOUD, TOO FLAMBOYANT, AND CERTALY NOT BRAWNY ENOUGH TO EXIST AT THE HOT, WHE (CIDLY WHE) CENTER OF NEW YORK CY’S GAY GALAXY. THIS IS A FAIAR NCERN, ONE EXPRSED MYRIAD ARTISTIC FORMS OVER THE YEARS, ALBE MEDIA FAR LS MERCIAL THAN A MAJOR MOTN PICTURE. THE GAZE OF GRDR PRENTS A NARROW LTLE WORLD OF SPICLY MCLED HUNKS, SHIRTLSLY ENJOYG THEIR LIV WHILE EVERYONE ELSE WATCH ON, HORNY AND ACHG, OM THE SIL. THAT TENSN IS MA MANIFT BOBBY’S LIFE WHEN HE MEETS AARON (LE MACFARLANE), JT SUCH A GYM GOD WH A EP VOICE WHO, SOMEHOW, SEEMS TERTED BOBBY. AS BROS RAMBL ALONG, BOBBY AND AARON NEGOTIATE THEIR DIFFERENC, BOTH THE SUPERFICIAL AND THE MORE FOUNDATNAL. AARON ISN’T QUE A PARODY OF MASC-FOR-MASC SELF-LOATHG—BROS IS, ALL S ARCH VERVE, TOO HUMANE A FILM FOR THAT—BUT THERE’S AN UNEASS AT HIS CENTER THAT ULD BE TERPRETED AS NIAL. BOBBY, MEANWHILE, HAS BEE RIGID ALL HIS SUPPOSED BIG-MD UNRSTANDG; HE’S SO NVCED HE HAS FIGURED OUT THE GAY FORT THAT HE KEEPS MISSG S TRE. ANYONE FAIAR WH EICHNER’S LOOPY TELEVISN SERI BILLY ON THE STREET WILL REGNIZE THE PARTICULAR BRAND OF REFERENCE-Y, BG HUMOR THAT GIV BROS S ACERBIC PEP. WHAT’S NEW IS A LAYER OF SWEETNS AND TROSPECTN, AN APATOVIAN WISTFULNS THAT ROUNDS OUT THE FILM’S PRICKLY EDG. EICHNER PROV AS APT AT SEMI-SERNS AS HE IS AT EDY. MAYBE EVEN MORE SO—SOME OF MY FAVORE MOMENTS THE FILM ARE WHEN BOBBY (AND, PROBABLY, BILLY) TAK A BREAK OM HIS ROUTE TO SCERELY EXPLA HIMSELF, TO EXPOUND ON HIS OWN NATURE A RARE EXPRSN OF VULNERABILY. BROS JUGGL S TRA-SOCIAL POLICS WELL. SURE, THE FILM MAY BE A B LOPSID TOWARD BOBBY’S PERSPECTIVE ON THGS, BUT SUCH IS THE PERHAPS NECSARY IMBALANCE OF A ROMANTIC EDY LIKE THIS. AARON IS GIVEN HIS FAIR DUE, BUT THIS IS REALLY BOBBY’S STORY, ONE THAT SEEKS TO MERELY REGNIZE AND MULL OVER THE VAGARI OF GAY LIFE RATHER THAN SOLVE THEM. BROS DO SO WH APPEALG BR, DISCURSIVE AND SILLY AND, WHERE REALLY UNTS, SEXY. WHICH ISN’T TO SAY THAT THE FILM WILL SATISFY EVERYONE. THERE’S MUCH TO BE PICKED APART HERE, ANALYZED FOR FLTS REASON AND ARGUMENT, LAMENTED FOR A LACK OF THIS AND THAT. TO THE FILM’S CRED, THOUGH, BROS SEEMS TO WELE THAT DISURSE; THERE’S A SELF-EFFACG QUALY TO EICHNER’S WRG THAT ACKNOWLEDG S LIMS AND ENURAG MORE DIALOGUE, MORE AND VARIED NARRATIV THE FUTURE. IT’S MOSTLY A GOOD TIME, THOUGH, CHEEKY AND CLEVER. A BEVY OF WELE MEOS OM GAY POP-CULTURE INS ADDS WSOME PEPPER, WHILE EICHNER AND MACFARLANE’S SIWAYS CHEMISTRY OFFERS PLENTY TO SWOON OVER AS THEY STROLL AND CHAT A GRACLY FILMED MANHATTAN AND, FOR A BRIEF BUT NO DOUBT EXPENSIVE JNT, PROVCETOWN. EICHNER HAS GLEEFULLY ACCEPTED THE LARGSE OF A MAJOR STUD AND MA SOMETHG THAT IS PARTICULARLY HIS. WHAT HE DON’T DO, THANKFULLY, IS CLOSE THGS OFF AT THE END. THERE IS LTLE SENSE OF FIVENS HERE; BROS MAY BE SOME KD OF TRAILBLAZER PENDG ON WHICH METRIC YOU’RE G, BUT ’S NOT SMUG ABOUT THAT STAT.

'BROS' TRAILER: BILLY EICHNER DELIVERS LGHS FIRST GAY ROM-COM FROM A MAJOR STUD

Bros is the first gay romantic edy wh a mostly LGBTQ st to be given a wi release by a major stud. Billy Eichner took to Twter this weekend to share his thoughts on the disappotg receptn his gay rom- Bros received at the natn's cemas.

GAY ROM- 'BROS' IS LIGHT AND BRIGHT WHILE MAKG MOVIE HISTORY

The Bros trailer reveals Billy Eichner and Le Macfarlane the first gay rom- om a major stud. Watch here. * bros gay movie *

" Based on enthiastic cril reactn at the Toronto Internatnal Film Ftival, and robt social media attentn, Universal Pictur had expected Bros – which is the first gay romantic edy wh a mostly LGBTQ st to be given a wi release by a major stud — to open the range of $8-10 ln. Eichner hted at broar acceptance issu, tweetg that at one pot a theater cha had "lled Universal and said they were pullg the trailer bee of the gay ntent. "Everyone who ISN'T a homophobic weirdo should go see BROS tonight!

As a meta-joke wh the movie, Eichner’s character reils when asked to create a gay rom- wh mass appeal.

“Bros," a gay rom- starrg Billy Eichner and Le Macfarlane, will make LGBTQ+ history on the big screen. * bros gay movie *

Bobby blam beg sgle on a lany of universal laments that dovetail wh queer-specific grip, say, guys on Grdr who type, “Mt see pic of ass, ” forcg him to fetch a rg light and a promo party for a new app lled Zellweger (“For gays who want to talk about actrs and go to bed, ” his iend, played by Guy Branum, scrib), Bobby meets Aaron (Macfarlane) and dismiss the hunky lawyer as yet another gay paradox: a man who’s both strappgly solid and emotnally vaporo. Bobby is a battle-srred veteran of 20th-century homophobia sufferg 21st-century whiplash. After the much-hyped gay rom bellyflopped s US release, s star and -wrer Billy Eichner raged agast the dyg buzz on Twter.

Ameri’s “straight people, pecially certa parts of the untry, jt didn’t show up for Bros”, he clared, before urgg anyone who isn’t a “homophobic weirdo” to check out. Everythg is terrible: straight actors playg gay characters and the straight dienc who love them; gay men more terted workg out than explorg gay history; gay men whose voic sound “too straight”; gay men whose voic sound “too gay”. It’s as if a mean, judgy cyb and his himbo love tert have been dropped to a Nora Ephron better hands, this uld have been an tertgly cynil take on queer love on film – whe gay misery rather than Meg Ryan cutens.
