Why watch this film?

Romantic Christmas comedies always follow the same path, with heterosexual couples made up of white people. That's why a movie like 'Single All the Way' is so interesting. Directed by Michael Mayer (of 'The Seagull'), the feature film tells the story of Peter, a young man who, tired of being the family's bachelor, convinces his best friend Nick to pretend to be his boyfriend at Christmas dinner. But things change completely, in the style of Christmas romantic comedies, when Peter's enthusiastic mother invites the handsome James to introduce her son. With good performances by Jennifer Coolidge ('American Pie'), Michael Urie ('Ugly Betty') and Luke Macfarlane ('Brothers & Sisters'), the feature film is a light and unpretentious fun that breaks labels at the same time that it invests in those clichés that everyone wants to watch at Christmas time, brightening up everyday life a little more.
