From Everett Lewis, the acclaimed writer-director of the art-house hits Luster and the Natural History of Parking Lots, comes an arousing and dark-edged story of a passionate affair set amidst the backroom bars, dark alleys and sordid hotel rooms of modern-day Los Angeles - a city where even if you're lucky enough to have it all, it doesn't mean you know exactly what you want. Rusty (Patrick Tatten, the Soloist) is a successful architect with to-die-for pectorals, bulging biceps and a killer smile. When his stodgy boyfriend leaves town, Rusty has a chance encounter with a handsome though seedy drifter, Denny (Dale Dymkoski, TV's Law and Order: SVU). Blinded by Denny's good looks, vulnerability and hustler charm, Rusty begins an intense, steamy relationship ruled by long-dormant passions. However, as Denny's control over Rusty strengthens, it soon becomes clear that Rusty - now on a seductive ride of sex and drugs - must decide what it is he truly wants. Lucky Bastard is an edgy, sensual and salacious exploration of youthful indiscretion, sexual indulgence and the high stakes of attraction - a story that rings true to anyone who's ever fallen for the wrong guy for all the right reasons.
