Lunch Break Video: The baseball game scene in “The Broken Hearts Club”

There had not been a whole lot of good gay romantic comedies when The Broken Hearts Club hit theaters back in 2000.

It remains one of the best of the genre.

The film revolves around a group of gay friends in West Hollywood who lean on each other to work their way through gay life, not always with success.

The cast is stellar led by Timothy Olyphant who anchors the film emotionally. Then there is Dean Cain as the male slut of the group who goes through boyfriends like Kleenex, a pre-Scrubs Zach Braff as the friend who loses his way, Andrew Keegan as the youngest guy in the group and John Mahoney of Frasier who is the group’s father figure.

In this scene, we also see Kerr Smith of Dawson’s Creek fame who succumbs to Cain’s charms.

Well, who w0uldn’t?

BTW, the film was written and directed by Greg Berlanti, producer of Brothers & Sisters, Eli Stone and Dirty Sexy Money.
