Synopsis
A decidedly non-stereotypical gay male couple finds their efforts to keep their personal and professional lives completely separate challenged by the arrival of the gay nephew whose presence threatens to reveal their closely guarded secret in director Laurie Lynd's charming family drama. Sam (Tom Cavanaugh) is a former professional hockey player who now works as a broadcaster at a major sports network. Of course Sam's colleagues have no clue about the outwardly masculine sportscaster's true sexuality, and the same can be said about his longtime partner Ed (Ben Shankman) - a high profile hockey player with a reputation for roughness on the ice. Now, despite successfully keeping their sexuality a secret for some time, happy couple Sam and Ed find their livelihood threatened with the arrival of Ed's nephew Scot (Noah Bernett) - whose mother has just died and whose responsibility-shirking father is currently out of town. Noah is an expert in the subjects of knitting and show tunes, but when it comes to the topic of sports he just can't be bothered. But Sam knows well the terror of having to hide your sexuality away from the masses, and now in order to save Noah from the torment of his new classmates - and perhaps prevent his own secret from being revealed, the knowing uncle does his best to straighten the effeminate young man out. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide
