| Plot: | Living in Seattle, Ben and Anna are a loving young supportive couple falling into what most would see as a "white picket fence" lifestyle as Ben calls it. As part of this lifestyle, they are now trying to have a child. Late one night, Andrew, Ben's friend from his college days, drops by their house unexpectedly, Ben and Anna put him up despite the inconvenience. Andrew, an artist, has always been a free spirit, a "Kerouac" as Ben refers to that life. Andrew travels the world at a whim, his most recent sojourn being in Chiapas. Andrew is in Seattle just to reconnect with his old buddy, who he not seen since the wedding. The next day, instead of getting to know his buddy's wife and learning about the life Ben and Anna are leading, Andrew decides to hang out with a bunch of artists he has just met, and drags Ben along. In a drunken stupor at the artists' party, the two learn about a festival in which the artists are partaking called Hump Fest. It is an amateur porn festival. As Ben and Andrew get caught up in the discussion, they decide to make their own porn film for the festival, the premise of their film being that it would be an artistic rendering of two overtly straight guys having sex, the two being themselves. As identifying as being straight, neither has ever had sex with another man. In discussions between the friends, Ben thinks that he's not as "white picket fence" as Andrew believes, nor is Andrew as "Kerouac" as he believes. In the sober light of day, will Ben's inner and Andrew's outer "Kerouac" still want to do the project? And if they do, Ben will eventually have to tell Anna his plans. |

Quotes

Ben: What a wild life you live, my friend. Andrew: Enh. You always have the option of doing what I'm doing, and I don't know that I so much have the option of doing what you're doing. Ben: Ah, it's easy. You just go to a grocery store, you find someone with long hair that's a girl, start kissing her, one thing leads to another. Then you buy her a ring, you get married, you buy a house. And soon enough you're converting your upstairs office into a potential baby room. Andrew: Are you fucking serious? Ben: Not yet, but we're on the path. We've officially removed the goalie, and now we're just doing free kicks. Andrew: That's the tricky thing. It's the difference between this and bungee jumping, is that bungee jumping, you just walk to the edge and jump... Ben: ...and the whole thing takes care of you... Andrew: ...and you don't have to have a hard-on to bungee jump. Andrew: I'm going to count to five and we're going to fuckin' *kiss* and we're just going to do it. Alright. Ben: You ready? Andrew: You ready? Ben: Yup! Andrew: You ready? Ben: Ready. Andrew: Ready? Ben: Five... [in unison] four, three, two, one. Andrew: [jumps at Ben. They open-mouth "kiss", but without moving at all; and they hold this for at least ten seconds; then they release and stand back] Ben: [pauses, then sounds happily relieved] It wasn't that bad! Andrew: [laughing] No, it was just... it's weird, I've never kissed stubble before. Ben: Wasn't that bad! Andrew: It wasn't *terrible*. Ben: It wasn't terrible, no, it wasn't terrible. Andrew: [long pause] Yeah, that was awful. Ben: Dude, that was awful. [pause] Okay... Andrew: Uhhhhh... Ben: This is gonna be hard. Andrew: Yeah, that puts a little wrench in the works, doesn't it? |
