I saw this last night on LOGO, and I have to say that it was terrific,
like a lost episode of "Square Pegs," or something.
The short film tells the story of the splendid Sissy Frenchfry, a sorta
Ferris Bueller for our times (winningly played by the charming Steven
Mayhew, a possible Mormon, methinks), and how an interloper tries to
take over his turf at West Beach High.
The interloper, a hunky jock with the alarming name of Bodey McDodey,
does his best (which is, happily, not good enough to defeat Sissy) to
take over the school, but good prevails !
A really wonderful film, I'd like to buy it on DVD, and I will be
keeping my eyes open for anything new from director J.C. Oliva.
UPDATE: I actually have a copy of the DVD now, and I LOVE it !!!

I think that everyone should see this movie!! I was very pleased to
find out that this won Grand prize at the 2006 Planet Out Short Movie
Awards!! Sissy is very convincing, Steven falls into character very
well, making everyone hate the newbie... who might I add is a complete
and utter jerk. I don't really want to give out too much of a
informative commentary on the movie, I just really wanted to give my
applause, saying that this is one of the best 'Out and Proud' movies, I
have seen and I definitely will suggest it to all of my friends once
it's out on DVD... (which by the way I was told might be happening
shortly)!! So, Sissy, you are still #1 in my book!!

The beauty in the movie lies in it's subtle yet strong focus on
tolerance. I loved the writers use of social satire in the film, it
made for both a pleasant and interesting outlook on the social fabric
of this country in the form of high school life. The actors truly knew
the message of the piece, and sold it to the audience in their own
personal character choices. Sissy truly gave the piece depth beyond its
already strong message. His color gave the audience reason to engage in
the struggle and fight for the justice in initiating tolerance.It was a
delightful combination of colorful acting, a wonderful script, and
brilliant direction.
