The opening night of Outfest was aided by this lighthearted movie and the afterparty afterwards. The only negative is that the pre-movie presentation started late and seemed to go on forever. The movie started about 9 so the afterparty started around 10:30.

More Information About Screening of Breakfast with Scot

Description

Eric, played by Tom Cavanagh (“Ed”), lives for all things hockey. Now he’s managed to turn his stint as a Toronto Maple Leaf into a full-time gig as a TV sports commentator. His boyfriend Sam, played by Ben Shenkman (ANGELS IN AMERICA) is a corporate lawyer. They live a fairly closeted life on a tree-lined street in Toronto. When Sam announces that they’re to become temporary guardians of a recently orphaned, 11-year-old boy named Scot, their comfortable world falls through the ice. Scot is everything that Eric and Sam are not - he has a penchant for feather boas, rose hand cream, Christmas carols and all that glitters. In an effort to toughen him up, Eric enrolls Scot in Pee Wee Hockey - and gets roped into being assistant coach - a job that is more than he bargained for.

Expertly directed by Laurie Lynd, based on the award-winning book by Michael Downing, this poignant film wraps tough issues of parenthood, relationships and masculinity in a blanket of comedy that will make you laugh, cry and laugh some more.
