After 24 years of radio silence, Ira (Matt Dallas) gets an anxiety-spiking blast from the past when his former high school best friend, and forever crush, Roger (Rick Cosnett), suddenly announces he'll be stopping by Ira's Hamptons hideaway. The news comes as a shock to Ira's long-time, patiently smitten boyfriend, Josh (Taylor Frey), who can't help but feel upended by this visit from a significant stranger he's never even heard mentioned before. But when Roger shows up having matured rather nicely--with his glam, adventurous girlfriend Lilly (Maggie Geha) at his side--it seems the foursome are in for an encounter to be remembered. It's just a question of whether it will be remembered for epic heartbreak or a liberating new start.

Melanie S Humorous, refreshing, and full of heart, this film is certainly worth watching. It presents a relatable tale of love, friendship, growing up, and cherishing what matters most. Additionally, it's incredibly fun, and the joy is contagious. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/12/25 Full Review Dani T This movie is refreshingly genuine and beautifully written, with perfect casting. It's no wonder it's receiving the attention it deserves. A wonderful film that is definitely a must-see. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/12/25 Full Review Sammy S I loved how Shoulder Dance combines stunning cinematography, a talented cast, and a storyline that's sexy, funny, and endearing. You'll find yourself drawn to the characters' struggles and longing for the dreamy beach house setting. The film's aesthetic, reminiscent of Tom Ford's style, captures every scene with precise mood and atmosphere. As a new fan of Jay Arnold, I'm eager to explore more of his work. This film is perfect for a laugh, a cry, and a nostalgic reflection. Go watch! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/12/25 Full Review Read all reviews
