There's a new gay film from Casper Andreas (Violet Tendencies, Slutty Summer) making the festival rounds. In fact, it's currently playing at Outfest in Los Angeles. The film is an adaptation of the comic memoir novel Going Down in La La Land which chronicles the adventures of a naive young actor who gets mixed up in porn/hustling when he tries to make it in Hollywood. As one does. Model/actor Matthew Ludwinski has the lead role.

I recently interviewed him for global queer culture magazine mate (previously known as "winq") and that's the splash page for the start of the article above. Interviews can be tricky -- especially if the interviewee doesn't have a big resume to talk about -- but Ludwinski and his photographer David Waage for this profile were very friendly and fun.

Whether or not you think Netflix is burning itself out [1], there's no denying the service has become a staple of movie watching for almost everyone: male and female, young and old alike. And, if you've ever spent hours upon hours raking every movie you've seen while sitting at your desk at work (not that we speak from experience) then you'll agree the more information you give the site, the better it does recommending movies or shows you'll enjoy. So, hypothetically, if your girlfriend cheated on you, and you spent way too much time obsessing over it, you could get a subtle but sweet revenge through Netflix. One lucky gentleman did. Probably. Check out the full photo after the jump. Thanks to Reddit [2] for the photo and NerdApproved [3] for the heads up. This photo shows the "Movies You'll Love" page on the guy in question's girlfriends account. He spent an unspecified...

You take the good, you take the bad, you take them both, and there you have .... Violet Tendencies, the greatest movie about the "oldest living fag hag" starring "The Facts of Life's" Mindy Cohn ever created (at least until the sequel).
Below, we have the trailer for Violet Tendencies (compliments of Craig), which is a ... I think we're going to call it an independent romantic comedy. It was directed by Casper Andreas, who you may know from his last film, Big Gay Musical or his debut film, Slutty Summer. In Violent Tendencies, Mindy Cohn is "the oldest living fag hag," who can't seem to find a man because, well, she's surrounded by gay men (ummmm ... you gotta play that Natalie Green card).
But then, she finds the male version of herself: A "fag stag." (Does putting "fag" in quotes absolve me of political incorrectness, or am I allowed to...

Embrem Entertainment will produce the comedy "Bye Bye, Fruit Fly," spinning off several of the characters from the company's gay-themed movies "Slutty Summer" and "A Four Letter Word."
The film will be the third collaboration between writer Jesse Archer and director Casper Andreas, who collaborated on the two previous films.
Andreas also will reprise the role of Luke, whom he played in the first two films. The story centers on a female character named Audrey, who attempts to leave her gay friends behind as she seeks a man of her own.
Having raised half of the project's $200,000 budget, the filmmakers are eying a production start in May.
Embrem is also producing the dramedy "Going Down in La-la Land," based on the book by Andy Zeffere, which Andreas also will direct.
The company also has picked up worldwide distribution rights to "The Big Gay Musical," which it will play at film festivals in the summer.
