This is a good first-effort film from these two. Not perfect, not awful. The stars here are Art and Chris, and whoever the old guys are.
Chris' implied desire for intimacy vs. Art's desire to get his rocks off is well-illustrated and poignant. A little more lead-up could have been helpful, and the photography could have been more crisp and less filmed-through-cheesecloth looking. For a low-budget effort, it's well done and I'm certain that they have learned a lot in self-producing this effort. Some vocalization might have helped define the plot better; maybe next film.
Generally speaking, I'm impressed and happy with the film. There's no major errors in visuals, plot or continuity. Both guys are handsome and act provocative, though they don't seem at all like 'strangers in the night', as they seem to be intended to be.
By the way, Bret LaBelle is nothing more than a 2-second cameo here, and he's only here because his condition for donating production funding for the flick was that he had to be in it. Fortunately, the film's editor edited him as much out of it as possible. He contributes zero to this film, or to any film, as far as I can tell. He's just a guy with dollars who wants to hang around these guys.
Kudos to Chris and Art for a good effort. Can't wait to watch what's coming next!
