Movie Review
 

Trick is a 1999 American independent gay-themed romantic comedy directed by Jim Fall.

Gabriel (Christian Campbell), an office temp by day and aspiring Broadway composer by night sees and becomes smitten with Mark (John Paul Pitoc), a Go-Go dancer in a gay bar. The two meet again in the subway and go back to Gabriel's place to have sex. They're frustrated in the attempt, with first Gabriel's aspiring actress friend Katherine (Tori Spelling) and then his roommate Rich and his girlfriend Judy showing up at the apartment.

When Gabriel loses a coin toss for the apartment and he and Mark have to leave, Gabriel seeks out his friend Perry to use his place, but as Perry's taking them there they run into Perry's ex-boyfriend. Perry and his ex tearfully reconcile and they go back to Perry's, frustrating Gabriel and Mark again.

They decide to hit a club for some dancing, and there a malicious drag queen (Miss Coco Peru) corners Gabriel in the restroom. She badmouths Mark to Gabriel, telling him of the time they tricked, which sounds very much like how Gabriel and Mark met, and how Mark gave her a fake phone number. Gabriel decides to take off.

Mark follows Gabriel back to his place to talk but also because he's left his keys there. They go in to look and try to talk it out while Judy mediates, but Mark leaves. Judy finds Mark's keys and Gabriel chases after Mark with them.

They decide to get something to eat but they run into Katherine and some of her theatre friends and Katherine monopolizes the conversation. Gabriel blows up at her and Katherine melts down and leaves in a huff. Gabriel chases after her and smoothes things over.

As a new day dawns, Mark gives Gabriel his phone number and heads home. Gabriel calls the number and learns that it's Mark's actual number. While they never found a spot to trick, Mark and Gabriel have formed a budding relationship beyond the simple trick they'd first been trying for.

Trick appeared at the Sundance and Berlin film festivals in 1999.
