[projekktor id=’20797′]

The Perfect Guy is a romantic thriller directed by David M. Rosenthal (A Single Shot). The film stars Sanaa Lathan, Michael Ealy, and Morris Chestnut.

Leah Vaughn (Sanaa Lathan) appears to have the ideal life. She enjoys a challenging, fast-paced career as a lobbyist; Dave (Morris Chestnut), her longterm boyfriend loves her. And yet … she’s ready to move to the next phase. Marriage and a family seem a logical and welcome step, but Dave is not so sure. A bit commitment phobic, his misgivings lead to a painful break up. Enter Carter Duncan (Michael Ealy), a handsome, charming stranger whose path keeps crossing with Leah’s. Caring and solicitous of Leah and her family and friends, their relationship rapidly progresses. It seems Leah has met the perfect guy. But it may be too good to be true. And when Dave suddenly re-enters her life, she must come to learn who she can trust and who she should fear.

Rosenthal thinks that the film’s portrayal of stalker nature reflects what is possible in real life. “The film offers a fascinating glimpse into the dark side of human relationships. But with all the cyber methods we have available now, the things that happen to Leah in this movie are all too real, it’s not a fantasy, this could actually happen, this particular brand of stalking – digitally, electronically and physically.”

The Perfect Guy is rated 14A.
