Threesome

Threesome (1994) — watch online on iFILM, an American comedy-drama directed by Andrew Fleming. A college housing mix-up places Alex, a female student, in a dorm room with two male roommates: tightly-wound Eddy and laid-back Stuart. They become friends fast. The problem is that each of them wants someone who wants someone else.

Alex is into Eddy. Stuart is into Alex. Eddy, finally honest with himself about being gay, wants Stuart. The triangle has no exit, which turns out to be both the film's comedy engine and its genuine emotional core. Lara Flynn Boyle, Stephen Baldwin, and Josh Charles play the geometry without winking at the audience, and it makes the whole thing land.

For 1994, the film was unusually direct about queerness — not as a crisis or a punchline, just as one more fact in an already complicated situation. Funny, a little sad, and smart enough to leave things unsettled. Stream Threesome (1994) on iFILM.
