Straight-Jacket

Hunky screen idol Guy Stone, played with excellent timing by Matt Letscher, is every woman's dreamboat and the secret lover of every closet case in Hollywood. He's a man's man with the slightest wiggle in his walk and the top choice for the lead in Ben-Hur. But when a few photos pop up of possibly gay Guy, the studio arranges an instant marriage of convenience to starry-eyed secretary Sally. Guy's life snowballs into a side-splitting struggle to keep his gay side from his new bride and stay in the cast of Ben-Hur.

Meanwhile Guy is shooting a dreadful picture that needs to have all leftist political influences deleted, so they hire the leftist writer Rick to do the re-write -- go figure! Rick is gorgeous, their eyes meet and all bets are off. For the first time ever, Guy actually falls in love with the guy. There's lots of kissing, high romance, drama (both low and high) great jokes and tons of fun. Writer/director Richard Day pokes gleeful fun at McCarthy-era Red-baiting, the hypocrisy of the celluloid closet and those great sixties comedies by making one of them!
