This one's a MUST SEE: funny, sexy,
hot men (including the sexy gay gardener from "Desperate
Housewives") and even a plot! This screwball comedy
harkens back to the days of Cary Grant and Katharine
Hepburn (who may be turning over in their respective
graves with that comparison) as a hunky straight
guy pretends he's gay to get a date with a woman
who only likes to hang out with gay men.

Caleb just wants
to meet a nice girl now after a bad experience. He goes
to a party with his gay best friend and roommate Kyle (the
adorably out Jim Verraros of "American Idol" fame)
and spies Gwen (Stiles) as she throws her latest gay boyfriend
out of the bedroom. Kyle explains to Caleb that Gwen only
seems to like gay boys and he convinces Caleb he must pretend
to be gay to get Gwen's attention, and it does. Caleb is
so convincing that Gwen decides to fix Caleb up with her
own gay best friend Marc (Carnes), a super-stud. And to
top off the whole ridiculous situation, Kyle has a long-standing
crush on Marc, who doesn't even seem to remember his name.
Suffice it say, this is quite a date! Combining plenty
of adorable gay boys with some seriously madcap humor makes
Eating Out a great bet.
Two pop culture alerts:
1. First season American Idol finalist Jim Verraros not
only has a strong supporting role in Eating Out he wrote
and performed most of the catchy pop songs in the film.
2. The studly actor who stars as Marc in Eating Out, Ryan
Carnes is now a familiar face on American television as
he has appeared for 3 weeks as Justin the gay gardener
on "Desperate Housewives."
