Great Gay-Themed Film Noir
This very watchable and super enjoyable gay themed detective film shows how much one can do on a more limited budget when a cast and crew have talent and vision. The story follows the investigation of an attempted murder and subsequent events by gay private detective Donald Strachey, played with perfection by a very sexy, very hot Chad Allen. Part of the reason for Chad Allen's superb performance is his natural ease and great comfort with himself and his character. He doesn't seem to be acting so much as becoming his character, which is a great credit to his ability. The film follows his character through a series of events filled with lots of twists and surprises that will satisfy any mystery/private detective connossuer. The seamless development and constant freshness of the storyline show how well written, well directed, and well performed this terrific film is. The mystery is revealed with great care and would make any mystery writer proud and the relationship storyline with Chad Allen and Sebastian Spence is treated with great respect, ease and much humor. It's great to see Jack Wetherall, from Queer As Folk, in a pivotal role in this film and he does a fantastic job here as the character much of the story revolves around. Third Man Out is the first in a series of films about the investigations of Donald Strachey - and that's great news. I look forward to many more. It's a credit to Chad Allen, Ron Oliver, and a very talented cast and crew who've already made this series a big success!
