Side-splitting farce about a handsome homosexual’s involvement with a not-so-heterosexual hunk. Bedrooms and Hallways satirizes issues of sexual identity, gay promiscuity, and male actualization methods with wit and grace. WONDERFUL! A fast-paced movie with snippy, campy dialogue. The acting is delicious. Ah’m now in love with Hugo Weaving! Ah swoon. Get me a mint julep! And Tom Hollander’s character reminds me of me when ah was just a l’il whippersnapper.
Bedrooms and Hallways is a hilarious comedy about the tangled love affairs of a gay man. Failed romantic Leo (Kevin McKidd) is just hitting 30. His roommate Darren (Tom Hollander) only reminds him

Margaret Cho is, quite simply, a living icon of the stand-up comedy world. More than a comedian and entertainer, the San Francisco native is a strong-voiced activist for womens’ rights and the rights of gays and lesbians. And now the power she wields will only grow as her new VH1 reality show, The Cho Show premieres this week.
It’s difficult to tap into something unknown about a comedian that even your mother has heard of, but someone like Margaret Cho is nothing, if not an endless well of interest and creativity. Beginning in 1995, with the debut of her ill-fated star-vehicle sitcom All American Girl, Cho burst onto the scene as a fiery force of unforgettable, wholly enduring comedic appeal.

Like any good stand-up comic, Steve Moore has a reserve of comebacks to draw upon if the crowd gets unruly or groans at a joke.
“Don’t mess with me, folks,” he is apt to say in his husky Virginia drawl. “I can open a vein and take out the whole front row.” Or he might pick up a stein off a nearby table and ask ever-so-innocently, “Excuse me, Goober, can I have a sip of your beer?”
Even the helplessly drunk and the terminally jaded spring instantly to attention. The 42-year-old Moore, you see, is gay. Nearly eight years ago, he tested positive for HIV. Since then he has watched

It’s been 11 years since Junot Díaz’s critically acclaimed story collection, Drown, landed on bookshelves and from page one of his debut novel, The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao, any worries of a sophomore jinx disappear. The titular Oscar is a 300-pound-plus “lovesick ghetto nerd” with zero game (except for Dungeons & Dragons) who cranks out pages of fantasy fiction with the hopes of becoming a Dominican J.R.R. Tolkien. The book is also the story of a multi-generational family curse that courses through the book, leaving troubles and tragedy in its wake. This was the most dynamic, entertaining, and achingly heartfelt novel I’ve read in a long
