Reviewer Ed Farolan

This Canadian film from Vancouver is a funny, romantic comedy. The Comedy Award (2015) was given to co-writers husband and wife team Peter and Julia Benson who also star in this film. This is a must-see film. You won't stop laughing and/or smiling from beginning to end. I'd give this film 4 out of 5.

The film is about a recently divorced ‘nice guy’ who falls head-over-heels in love with his gorgeous new boss. Unfortunately, his attempt to ask her for a date doesn't work out, so he devises a plan saying he's gay just to be ab;e to go out with her. The plot thickens and things go awry as he tries to get himself out of the lie.However, being a romantic comedy, you know things will go right at the end,

Peter Benson graduated from the Vancouver Film School and has a degree in Communications. He participated in the NSI Totally Television Program for a series he wrote called Kits. The pilot episode was shot for City TV. Benson co-wrote, produced, and starred in the feature film Death Do Us Part which Anchor Bay Entertainment released.

His wife of seven years, Julia, is also a Vancouverite, and has acted in various films: Road to Victory (2007) and in the TV sci-fi series SGU Stargate Universe Kino (2009) and SGU Stargate Universe (2009). It is the latter series where she received the 2010 Leo Award for Best Supporting Actress.
