3-Day Weekend (2008) directed by Rob Williams

Director: Rob Williams

Writer: Rob Williams (writer)

Release Date: 8 August 2008 (USA)

Genre: Drama

Tagline: Start packing

Plot: In the tradition of Boys in the Band and with a nod to Love, Valour, and Compassion, director Rob Williams s latest film is a humorous but sensitive and certainly unforgettable romp around a gay man's unforgettable weekend.

Long-term couple Simon and Jason, along with daddy-ish Cooper and his boy du jour, meet annually for a three-day weekend away from their hectic city lives. Looking to spice up this long-standing tradition, they add a special twist to this year s retreat -- each of them must invite one attractive single friend to their mountain getaway. Arriving are a frisky former college roommate, a constantly naked yoga instructor, Jason s uptight co-worker and a high-priced rent boy who do indeed stir up the weekend. But this combination of new and old friends creates more tension than anyone anticipated. After 72 hours and multiple sexual couplings, new relationships form while others are cast onto shaky ground.

With the popular Long-Term Relationship and Back Soon under his directorial belt, Rob Williams continues to show that he can deliver honest dialogue, appealing actors and enough drama to faithfully please his devoted fan base while still encouraging a new group of supporters to enjoy the show!

Thanks, of course I will friend you back, my friending policy is pretty open, if you have no problem with my post, I tend to like pics ;-) (but I use a cut if I post more than few!).

And no, the pics are not mine, I collected them around. I have a special folder for movies, but usually upload only few. Elisa

Hurray on mutual friending!

And no, the pics are not mine, I collected them around.

Darn, on that they weren't your pics. I was hoping to get those scenes where you see Gaetano Jones and Derek Long naked! LOL!

I posted my review!

:-) Yes there are some nice moment when Gaetano and Chris are naked in bed. With Gaetano Jones I would like also to see Phoenix, it's in my waiting list.

I saw your review and I gave you my impression on the movie. I post once a week on movie, on Monday, I saw a lot of nice movie lately, but almost all low budget.
