Todd is a hyper-articulate, obsessive compulsive gay twentysomething whose fear of dying alone leads him to a baffling conclusion: he might not be gay after all. When he meets Rory, a whip-smart struggling actress with her own set of insecurities, the two forge a relationship that’s all talk and no sex. Writer-Director-Star James Sweeney delivers a razor sharp rom-com that’s equal parts Classical Hollywood and distinctly 21st century, exploring just how elastic our definitions of love and sexuality can get.

Critic Quotes: “We often make our own psychological prisons, and Straight Up is a droll embodiment of its protagonist’s (and perhaps its maker’s?) inner turmoil.” – Keith Uhlich, The Hollywood Reporter

“It’s the battle between what they feel for each other and what they believe their relationship should amount to that gives Straight Up its most memorable qualities.” – Carlos Aguilar, TheWrap

“Straight Up is a fantastic showcase for a promising voice who understands the current sexual and emotional landscape. Todd may be confused, but Sweeney feels like a fully formed voice in cinema.” – Amelia Harvey, Scream Queens
