It also stars Dan Payne, Derek James and Thea Gill (of Queer as Folk and Dante's Cove).[2] PlotTyler Davidson invites his college buddy Chase home for summer break on Prospect Lake. The Davidson family appears practically perfect in every way to Chase, in contrast to his own dysfunctional family with whom he is not close. After continued attempts by Tyler to set up Chase with local girls, Chase comes out to Tyler and tells him he is gay. The family attempts to support Chase, and Tyler's father Nathan in particular begins to spend substantial time with him. Soon Nathan begins to realize that his own long-suppressed feelings toward men are resurfacing, and he has become attracted to Chase. These attractions turn into a brief affair, which is soon witnessed by Nathan's wife Stacey and later by Tyler. Once in the open, Nathan and Chase try to come to terms with the effect of their actions on others, as the friendship between Tyler and Chase is ruined, and Nathan attempts to keep his family together. Nathan ultimately decides to leave Stacey, Tyler, and their daughter at the family's summer home, while he drives off to re-evaluate his life alone. Cast

ReceptionFilm critic Don Willmott from Filmcritic.com gave the film a score of 2.5/5, stating: "Writer/star Charlie David may have wanted to keep things low key, but the movie ends up coming across as low voltage".[3] Michael D. Klemm of Cinemaqueer.com stated that "Mulligans doesn't suck – not by a long shot – but, after a promising start, it winds up overstaying its welcome."[4] References1. ^Border 2 Border (Canada) 2. ^{{cite web|title=Gearing up for Charlie David's new film: 'Mulligans'|url=http://blogs.dailynews.com/outinhollywood/2008/04/22/gearing-up-for-charlie-davids/|date=22 April 2008|website=dailynews.com|accessdate=3 May 2018}} 3. ^{{cite web|title=Mulligans Reviews|url=https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/mulligans/reviews/|publisher=Rotten Tomatoes|accessdate=3 May 2018}} 4. ^{{cite web|last=Klemm|first=Michael D.|title=Mid Life Crisis|url=http://www.cinemaqueer.com/review%20pages%202/mulligans.html|date=March 2009|website=cinemaqueer.com|accessdate=3 May 2018}} External links
