Say Uncle ★★ 2005 (R)

Paul (Paige) dotes excessively on his young godson and is devastated when he learns the boy and his family are moving to Japan. So he decides to take his surrogate parenting to the local park where the watchful mothers eye this manchild with suspicion, especially after he admits to mom Maggie (Najimy) that he's gay. Paul's actions may be misconstrued but he behaves stupidly as well, although Maggie is little more than a onenote hysteric. Paige's directorial debut. 91m/C DVD . Peter Paige, Kathy Najimy, Anthony Clark, Melanie Lynskey, Gabrielle Union, Lisa Edelstein; D: Peter Paige; W: Peter Paige; C: David Makin; M: Kurt Swinghammer.
