Product Description

“JOYOUS! AN ABSOLUTE DELIGHT!” Rex Reed, New York Observer "IT'S A GEM!” Andrew Huang, The Village Voice “PESSIMISTS BEWARE: YOU MIGHT LEAVE THIS ONE WITH A GOOFY SMILE ON YOUR FACE!” Billie Cohen, Time Out New York. *** In this funny valentine to love 90s style, three wide-eyed college grads score a great apartment in Greenwich Village and set out to take New York by storm. Laughing in the face of cynicism, Marc dreams of that big Broadway break, songwriter Robert dreams of Marc, while the deliciously delusional Cynthia (Mara Hobel, MOMMIE DEAREST) stalks her dream employer with nothing to recommend her except a blank resume and the ability to accessorize. But when sexy neighbor David (Hugh Panaro, THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA) enters the picture, the harsh realities of life, love and career test their incorrigible optimism in this gay romantic comedy classic. If you like GLEE, SMASH, THE NEW NORMAL, MODERN FAMILY, THE WIZARD OF OZ and SINGIN' IN THE RAIN, you will love BROADWAY DAMAGE!

I couldn't help but to think of Barbra Streisand as I watched this film. In her best performances, Barbra played the role of the ugly duckling who falls in love with the handsome leading man (Omar Shariff, Robert Redford, Jeff Bridges). This movie follows a similar formula, where Robert is the ugly duckling and Marc is the handsome leading man.
Robert has two dreams: becoming a songwriter and landing Marc. Likewise, Marc also has two dreams: landing a role on Broadway, and finding a handsome boyfriend. In addition to their friendship, Robert and Marc have one thing in common: "girlfriend" Cynthia, who is trying to find a job (one job in particular, that is). Marc and Cynthia decide to share an apartment. One day, while staring out the window of their new apartment, Marc discovers the man of his dreams (a musician with stunning good looks, of course).
Marc explains to Robert the concept of the "Grand Gesture". Its when you swallow your pride, buy flowers or something, and let that special person know you're in love with them. Easy for Marc to say, since he is good looking and popular with the gents. Not so easy for Robert, who gets turned down by the card store cashier. Humiliated, Robert gives up on good-looking boyfriends.
Here is where the story varies from the typical Streisand plot. While ugly-duckling Streisand becomes the beautiful swan by using her voice, her talent or (in the most fictional of plots) a makeover, Robert stays plain old Robert. Can Marc see past Robert's dull exterior? Can Marc see past the musician's beautiful exterior? Will Robert get the courage to do the "Grand Gesture" to Marc?
Those are the questions to be answered in Broadway Damage. By the way, what's with the title? Alhough the movie explains what "broadway damage" is, I'm not sure it was the best choice for the title. Personally, I would have chosen "The Grand Gesture".
Back to Streisand... If you love "The Mirror has Two Faces", you'll love Broadway Damage. If you hated "Mirror", chances are you'll still like Broadway Damage, anyway.

Reviewers who don't like this film reveal more about themselves than they reveal about the film. It is an optimistic, joyful, old-fashioned, adorable, charming film - and some folks just don't like those good qualities in a film. But if you are looking for a film to cheer you up, or make you feel good about life, this is the film for you.

"Broadway Damage" follows the lives of three characters who just finished college and are ready to set the world on fire... if only they can get a decent job. One main character falls in love with a hot singer, only to find that he is not what he seems, but he later realizes that the man of his dreams was right under his nose all along. It's a storyline you may have seen before, but you have never seen it portrayed this brilliantly.

"Broadway Damage" is amazing in many respects: the talents of the actors are amazing; the editting of the film is immaculate - and could not have been better; the original music used in the film is the best I have heard in decades -especially Cindy Soltoff's "Men/Someone" piece, which is one of THE best songs to ever appear in a film or musical; and the dialogue is some of the best, wittiest dialogue you have ever heard out of the mouths of actors this young (early 20's). The film shows their naivete, but more importantly, it shows their hearts, and they are lovely hearts to spend some time with.

To call this film technically excellent is a great understatement. It is SUPERB in its technical qualities. For a low budget film it is no less than a miracle. You feel exactly as if you are there with the characters, strolling around Greenwich Village. And some scenes are so memorable... well, you just have to see them for yourselves. I can not recommend this wonderful film highly enough.

I enjoyed the characters, hot guys, funny and down to earth. Seems like a story that's been used before but still holds true because so many of us have lived it. Female lead is very good. We'll written and acted which also speaks for the director and producer. Viewed it some while back on instant view and loved it so much I bought the DVD on Amazon.com, super price. This is a feel good movie, so if you're interested in painful rejection and hateful relationships this is much lighter and happier. One of my favs, 5.0 stars 08282015, highly recommended.

Characters and story line have been done lots of times. If you didn't know exactly how it was going to end, this must be the first movie you ever saw. Even so, the cast was outstanding and they made it worth watching for me. Truly unrealistic, though, was how anybody as smart as these people were would stay one more day in an apartment where they had to fight cockroaches and rats. That prevented me from adding a fourth star to my rating.

I found this picture ten years after it was released and it is as fresh as if it were made this year. The plot is not new, but the fact that it is handled with loving expertise by director Mignatti makes the story seem fresh and new. The acting is excellent and the production values are good. The entire cast works on the same professional level. The original songs and soundtrack are refreshing. I'll admit, it may take a romantic to love this film. I've watched it several time, and like all good cinema, it only gets better with repeated viewing.

Predictable, yes. Over-the-top characters, yes.

I liked this feel good gay romance. Well acted, written, and directed When you want something light to watch that is not draggy as all hell. A good gay movie to take your mind off of things.
