How to order
Brad's wife is supposedly going to visit her ailing father in Six Mile Creek. When Brad (Paul Morgan) returns home from driving her to the airport, he finds a
mysterious, nearly nude stranger (Chris Dano) lolling by the pool. Ordered to leave, the drifter shows Brad his most prized possession, a pair of Chinese exercise balls. "If
you roll them around in your hands," Dano says, "they calm you, they enlighten you, and sometimes... they show you things."
A spell is cast. The drifter stays for dinner and lets Brad play with his balls. Rolling these metallic marvels around in his hands, Brad conjures up a vision of
Dirk Adams and Sebastian making slurpy love on a nearby couch. "Those were guys!" Brad exclaims when the vision is over. He's hooked. The drifter is asked to spend
the night. Under cover of darkness, Brad sneaks another session with the balls. Two more reveries of mediocre man-to-man encounters mark his progress toward sex
with the ball-bearing stranger.
In Bruce Walker's Handsome Ransom, cast as a pair of horny, bumbling kidnappers, Morgan and Dano played off each other with an easy comic reciprocity. In
the sex scenes they shared, they struck sparks. That chemistry is still in evidence here, but it's undermined by the material, which asks them to give "serious"
performances. Handsome Ransom was cheerfully, deliberately silly;
The Drifter seems oblivious to its own nuttiness.
