Every year the Sundance Film Festival (January 2030) in Park City, Utah, offers a preview of many of the best GLBT films of the upcoming year. Here we look at some of the more high-profile fare the festival is offering.
HAPPY ENDINGS
What its about: Three stories of love and dysfunction intertwine, including the tale of a gay male couple (David Sutcliffe and Steve Coogan) who are convinced that the sperm one of them donated to a lesbian couple (Laura Dern and Sarah Clarke) produced their 2-year-old child, despite the womens denial. In another thread Jason Ritter plays a young gay man who is trying to convince his father that hes not gay.
Gay factor: With five gay characterssuper high. Add in gay writer-director Don Roos (The Opposite of Sex) and its a Kinsey 6.
When you can see it: In theaters July 15
MYSTERIOUS SKIN
What its about: A teenage hustler (Joseph Gordon Levitt) and a young man (Brady Corbet) who believes he was abducted by aliens share a chilling past in queer writer-director Gregg Arakis latest.
Gay factor: Pretty high. All the aforementioned, plus its based on the book by gay writer Scott Heim.
When you can see it: In theaters May 27
REEFER MADNESS
What its about: A hilarious campy musical about the evils of marijuana
Gay factor: Medium: Alan Cumming has a costarring role, and theres an orgy scene that involves both Christian Campbell (Trick) and Steven Weber. Dan Studney, who wrote the music, cowrote the script, and is one of the executive producers of the film, is gay.

THE DYING GAUL
What its about: A gay writer (Peter Sarsgaard) is lured into the sexually charged web of a studio executive (Campbell Scott) and his wife (Patricia Clarkson) in this film by gay writer-director Craig Lucas (Longtime Companion).
Gay factor:High. Also, Sarsgaard (who just queered it up in Kinsey) and Scott (who played gay in Longtime Companion) get it on.

ELLIE PARKER
What its about: A wannabe actress (Naomi Watts) rushes through life trying to get cast in a movie, and her best friend, boyfriend, and new fling cant keep up with her.
