Review

It’s no coincidence that gay men are often referred to as drama queens. This recognized penchant of the homosexual male for approaching life as a series of telling theatrics provides the driving force that propels Lost in the Pershing Point Hotel (2000) into the territory of engaging and emotionally affecting entertainment. Told largely in flashback vignettes, this loosely autobiographical depiction of a struggle for identity and self-worth chronicles the coming to manhood of a man who loves men. He checks into and checks out of a transient residence where the halls are occupied with memories of drag queens, drug abuse, hustler chicks, heroin addicts, and a prostitution of the body that leads to an elevation of the soul.
