Former President Bill Clinton and 'Mr. Right' Film 'Come Out' at the Same Time

Former President Bill Clinton and 'Mr. Right' Film 'Come Out' at the Same Time

British Director Jacqui Morris and Screenwriter David Morris strike a new chord with a romantic comedy about same-sex relationships as Clinton tells CNN's Anderson Cooper, "I was wrong."

HOLLYWOOD, Calif., Sept. 30 /PRNewswire/ -- Just as former President Bill Clinton told CNN's Anderson Cooper this past week, "I was wrong" about same-sex marriage referring to the law against it that he had signed early in his administration, and revealed that he is now in support of it, "Mr. Right," a film from director Jacqui Morris and screenwriter David Morris, is set to premiere in Hollywood, October 9, at the Laemmle's Sunset Five Cinema.

Just as "Star Trek" star, George Takei and his new partner are announced to be the first gay couple on one of America's longest running t.v. shows, "The Newlywed Game," the concept of "Mr. Right," captured in the film's ad campaign, "Query Yourself" (www.queryyourself.com), challenges audiences to inquire of their own reality on the subject and experience what one reviewer called a "smartly delivered film that creates a self-contained, well-to-do, feel-good universe where pure intentions and tolerance will heal all wounds and open all doors."

"Mr. Right's" promotion includes "Mom's Go Free," says director Jacqui Morris, and she means it literally. "It's certainly one of the first films since 'Brokeback Mountain,' that examines an honest view of the normal relationships of couples where it matters not if they are gay or not. And it's a movie you can take your Mom to."

"For those initiated into the gay community, it will ring true, for those who aren't, it will hopefully provide some fascinating insight. Rather than being polemical or crudely comic, it deals with adult subjects which affect us all," Morris says.

The distribution for "Mr. Right" produced by Mugshoots Productions will be done by Wolfe in the U.S. for the DVD expected out in time for Christmas. The film will be screened on VH1/Logo Television starting November 15 following the October 9 theatrical run in Hollywood at the Laemmle Sunset Five Cinema. The U.K. DVD release by Verve is set for mid January, 2010. Ms. Morris will be meeting with prospective US theatrical distributors during the week of the run in Hollywood, to qualify "Mr. Right" for Academy Award consideration.
