STRAIGHT-JACKET LIZ SMITH'S COLUMN "WHEN DID this business get so mean?" STRAIGHT-JACKET "When it began." So goes one of the incisive exchanges in a quirkily amusing and oddly moving little film, "Straight-Jacket." Produced by Michael Warwick, written and directed by Richard Day, this is a loose take on Rock Hudson's plight — a film idol marrying briefly to cover his homosexuality. The lead actors — Matt Letscher, Carrie Preston and Adam Greer — are unknown to me, but they throw themselves into this parody with high spirits and unexpected emotional commitment. The one "name" is Veronica Cartwright, the former child star, who plays a withering press rep to the closeted star. She is a riot. LA WEEKLY STRAIGHT-JACKET New Recommended “What’s the point of being famous if you can’t use it to get laid?” An inarguable point, raised by 1950s movie star Guy Stone (Matt Letscher), dreamboat hero of millions and a closeted, happily promiscuous homosexual. Whenthe tabloids get wind of his secret, Guy’s agent (the great Veronica Cartwright) persuades him to propose to Sally (Carrie Preston), a starry-eyed studio secretary who will instantly lose her new husband to a hunky, long-lashed commie screenwriter (Adam Greer).	LA TIMES - Movie Review - Kevin Thomas ...his tough, shrewd, highly protective manager, Jerry (Veronica Cartwright, the film's strongest presence) urges him to be more discreet, but Guy counters by asking what's the point of being a movie star if you can't get sex? SRO PICTURES, HERE! FILMS AND REGENT RELEASING PROUDLY PRESENT: STRAIGHT-JACKET "A quirkily amusing and oddly moving little film" - LIZ SMITH "One of the highlights of the movie year." - CHUCK WILSON - LA Weekly "A fey and frisky farce with a fabulous fashion sense..." - JOE LEYDON - Variety "...delirious comedy..." - KEVIN THOMAS - Los Angeles Times "...filled with juicy, witty wisecracks..." ANDY KLEIN - LA City Beat "Straight Jacket" is a comedy set in 1950’s Hollywood in which Guy Stone, a movie star, must marry a studio secretary (Sally) in order to conceal his homosexuality. Sally has no idea that the marriage is a sham and turns Guy’s life upside-down. Straight - Jacket was written and directed by Richard Day (Girls Will Be Girls) and produced by Michael Warwick (Girls Will Be Girls). The film stars Matt Letscher (Good Morning Miami), Carrie Preston, Veronica Cartwright, Adam Greer, Jack Plotnick and Michael Emerson. Day’s Straight-Jacket was first produced as a play that ran off-Broadway in 2000. Carrie Preston and Adam Greer recreate their roles from the original production. Day made his feature film directing debut with the critically acclaimed comedy, Girls Will Be Girls, which was released in 2003 by IFC Films.
