Oscar Novak (Matthew Perry) and Peter Steinberg (Oliver Platt) are architects pitching a cultural center for tycoon Charles Newman (Dylan McDermott). Charles is married and having an affair with glass artist Amy Post (Neve Campbell). He mistakenly believes that Oscar and Peter are gay romantic partners as well. He sets them against competitor Strauss (John C. McGinley) and Decker (Bob Balaban) in an expensive bidding process. He's leery of Amy's ex. He gets Oscar to keep an eye on her and away from his wife (Kelly Rowan).
The premise has the stink of a TV sitcom with a straight guy mistaken for a gay guy. Matthew Perry is either the perfect guy to do this or the guy to accentuate its sitcom nature. Perry and Campbell ooze with charm. I love them and they make a nice couple together. On the other hand, it's a bland rom-com at best and humor is broadly weak. I want something better for this adorable couple.
