Todd (Writer-Director James Sweeney) is a hyper-articulate, obsessive compulsive gay twentysomething whose fear of dying alone leads him to a baffling conclusion: he might not be gay after all.

When he meets Rory, a whip-smart struggling actress with her own set of insecurities, the two forge a relationship that’s all talk and no sex. Sweeney delivers a razor sharp rom-com that’s equal parts Classical Hollywood and distinctly 21st century, exploring just how elastic our definitions of love and sexuality can get.

Straight Up is available in our libraries via DVD as well as streaming with your library card and a free Kanopy account.

2nd Floor Flix is Glen Park Branch's movie club for grownups. We watch a broad range of films, from classics to contemporaries, with a focus on exposing our audience to rising creatives, fan favorites and hopefully something new to you.
