Description: When I very first presented A Thing of Beauty, I stated, "It's my expect that these brief films are a candle in the dark for anyone who misgivings that the enjoy inbetween 2 men is anything but a thing of beauty." But as the project progressed and took on a life of its own, it connected me with the idea of "life" and the things that make it beautiful. For years, I had compartmentalized many parts of my "life"-- work, family, being gay, sex, and the list heads on. Often, I'd find myself weakened from just the management and reconciliation of all my states of mind-- being something or acting some way I thought was hoped of me. I eventually realized I was just another hamster on the hamster wheel of life. ENOUGH! Every day, I work firm to free myself from a way of being that caused me to live in an inauthentic state. The very first thing I do every morning is speak out noisy the things I am thankful for. It's a intense inoculation to the negativity that seems to overtake our daily thoughts. When RJ, Benny and I set out to make A Thing of Beauty, the key ingredient was Gabriel Clark. Having worked with him for the last trio years has been an inspiration, a fun and a blessing. And in this film, "The Gift", you will watch why.
