The Broken Hearts Club

The Broken Hearts Club

Who's in it: Timothy Olyphant, Ben Weber, Matt McGrath, Zach Braff, Dean Cain, Andrew Keegan
What's it about: Dennis(Olyphant), Patrick(Weber), Benji(Braff), Howie(McGrath), and Cole(Cain) are best friends. They all have one things in common. They are gay. Cole is a hotshot that is always playing his way through relationships. Dennis is wanting more than just a one night stand. Everything changes when Howie loses his boyfriend, Patrick is asked to be a donor, Benji starts doing drugs, and Cole brings Kevin(Keegan) around. Dennis falls in love with the recently out Kevin but Cole finds it fun to mess with Kevin's feelings first.

What I Think: This movie was very good. There aren't many movies about gays and I think that it was about time this was done. This is real life and people can't just ignore it. The closest person to you could be gay and you not know it. I find it admirable of all of these actors to play in this movie and all the controversy that comes along with it. The acting was done nicely and I loved the drama that continued to surface. Olyphant was a great starring actor and the rest of them really helped for the story to really stick in your mind.
