BOYS TO MEN is a compilation of four shorts that vividly recreates the different phases in the lives of gay men. The first short: CRUSH, directed by Phillip Bartell, recreates the early stages of sexual awakening with refreshing nostalgia and sweetly natural performances from its young stars. Tina (Emma A. Tuennerman) is a small town 12 year old growing up in suburban Illinois who meets a new boy in town, 16 year old Robbie (Brett Chukerman), and instantly develops a crush on the newcomer. Eventually, Tina realizes that the object of her desire is gay and helps him to meet the man of his dreams. In THE MOUNTAIN KING, directed by Duncan Tucker, a young gay hustler meets a closeted stranger on a remote beach and attempts to pick him up in this erotic combination of gay fantasy and realism. ....LOST, directed by Dan Castle, is a brief examination of anonymous unprotected sex, and the very real danger of AIDS in the gay community. Finally with CONFESSION, directed by Carl Pfirman, the last stages of life are examined in a poignant glimpse of an elderly gay couple struggling to cope with their own mortality and spirituality. Joseph (Bert Kraemer) is dying and asks his longtime lover Caesar (Tom Fitzpatrick) to send for a Priest (Christopher Liebe) despite his own spiritual misgivings. These four short films weave together nicely to create a sensitive, erotic, and touching glimpse of modern gay life.DVD Features:Region 1Keep CaseSingle Side - Single LayerFull Frame - 1.33:1

Viewed through our photographs, it would seem we have lived a joyous, leisurely existence. Sy Parrish (Robin Williams), who makes this observation, adversely leads a lonely life, operating a photo lab in a SavMart department store. He escapes his dreary reality through the family photos of Nancy Yorkin (Connie Nielsen) and her family. His admiration of the Yorkins becomes an obsession, as he fashions himself as Uncle Sy to little Jake (Dylan Smith). Sy's judgment becomes impaired by his unhealthy interest, causing him to lose his job of 11 years. As his final day approaches, Sy develops photographs revealing an indiscretion on the part of Mr. Yorkin (Michael Vartan). The unstable Sy now develops a disturbing, calculated plan to instill family values to the Yorkin clan.Much of ONE HOUR PHOTO takes place inside a department store similar to a Wal-Mart, bordered in an icy blue. This cold atmosphere creates a solitary framework for the disturbed photo developer Sy Parrish, played with a melancholic detachment by Williams, working here against type. Director Mark Romanek (STATIC) has created a thriller with little violence. Instead, it is permeated with an uncomfortable fear emanating from its damaged protagonist.DVD Features:Region 1Keep CaseFull Frame - 1.33Single Side - Dual LayerAudio: Dolby Digital 5.1 - English Dolby Surround - French Dolby Surround - SpanishAdditional Release Material: Audio Commentary - 1.
