  2 Minutes Later Film Row Cinema
  Robert Gaston
  US, 2007

Fusing elements of classic film noir and the buddy movie into a snug queer package, director Robert Gaston (Open Cam) has instigated an intriguing new genre with this thrilling sex-laced murder mystery that brings together one of cinema’s most unlikely duos—gay men and … gay women!

The film opens with the violent attack of Kyle (Michael Molina), a smug (but oh-so-sexy) Philadelphia photographer. Cut to two weeks later—Kyle is missing and his agent hires the swanky, suave, and steamy private dick, Abigail Marks (Jessica Graham), to put aside her empty sexcapades for a few hours a day and hunt him down. Meanwhile, Kyle’s benign and somewhat closeted identical twin brother Michael (also played by Molina) is in town on business and soon discovers that, although his brother is nowhere to be found, settling into his life while the mystery unravels might prove both educational and fulfilling.

Quickly, our two protagonists join forces, exchanging quips while progressing towards the whodunit’s end (and each stopping for some sultry conquests along the way). The two delectable leads are sure to satisfy the cravings of any audience member, giving 2 Minutes Later something to offer anyone looking for a mystery with a libido. 71 min
