A delightful adaptation of Jeff Brown’s beloved children’s book. Stanley Lambchop is your ordinary 10-year-old until the bulletin board above his bed comes loose and falls on him. The next morning, Stanley wakes up flat! He then travels the globe in search of a way to make himself three dimensional again.
Jeffrey, a gay actor/waiter, has sworn off sex after too many bouts with his partners about what is “safe” and what is not. In gay New York, though, Jeffrey finds the pursuit of love and just plain old physical gratification to be the number-one preoccupation of his times—and the source of plenty of hilarity.
Suddenly, just after he’s reconciled himself to celibacy, Jeffrey’s flamboyant friends introduce him to the man of his dreams, who also happens to be HIV-positive. What follows is an audacious and moving romantic comedy with a difference—one in which the quest for love and really fabulous clothes meet, and where unflagging humor prevails even when tragedy might be just around the corner.
