Movie Reviews of Leather Jacket Love Story
Movie Review: From One of the Actors in Leather Jacket Love Story
Summary: 5 Stars
I just wanted to say Thank You to all you guys (and gals) who left the nice reviews.
I played 'Kyle' in Leather Jacket Love Story and got casted about a week before shooting.
Most takes were done just once.
It was a tough shoot in the sense that we didn't have a big budget, weren't paid very much and as mentioned, didn't get the chance to really do any re-takes.
However it was a film I wanted to do.
I was offered the part after approx 500 guys had auditioned.
David, the Director came to my acting class a week prior to shooting and told me he had been looking and looking for the lead for his new film and after seeing me in my acting class wanted me to play the part. Chris, who plays 'Mike' had been casted several months before I was.
I accepted the part then pretty much crammed to learn the ever-changing script in about a week.
This film was shot in 1996. Prior to this they were not showing sex scenes between two men like they do in many straight full feature movies.
Typically when the sex scenes would start in gay movies previous the camera would fade, or cut to a silhouette or move to bedroom curtains blowing in the night sky, hehe
The Director and Producer of this film believed the time had come for gay films to start showing sex scenes like straight ones do and they wanted ours to be the first.
It was for this pioneer element that I agreed to do the role.
I've read the reviews and noticed one reviewer writes that I got the part because I agreed to do the nude scenes. That isn't exactly accurate.
I got the part after David saw me in my acting class, then was told of the nude scenes afterwords but agreed to do those scenes because I felt the pioneer element of not having those kinds of scenes in a full feature before was an important step to our community.
We took alot of heat for doing this, people even walked out of the editing room because they were so discomforted by it..but eventually things would lead to more gay films now following this, mainstream TV shows like Queer As Folk and many others that would also take this route many years later.
The original script was quite a bit different from what me and Chris saw in the actual theater. Scenes ment to go at the beginning were now placed in the middle, and scenes Chris and I both thought were very important to the film were cut-out entirely.
I have now been reading reviews and feedback about this film for years. Yeah, I've read the vicious stuff, the cruel stuff and the stuff that made me feel pretty bad.
I guess I just wanted to leave this response to say 'Thank You' for those of you who have left the supportive positive comments that were awesome, brightened my day and made me feel proud to make this film a few years ago.
Thanks guys, I really appreciate it : )
For your kind words, support and for just being AWESOME!
Thank You.
Much Love & Hugs,
Your Bud,
Sean Tataryn, 'Kyle' in Leather Jacket Love Story
