About Leather Jacket Love Story
Kyle is 18, an aspiring poet hoping to find inspiration by moving to the arty Silver Lake neighborhood of LA, and maybe love too. On day one, he finds a funky coffee shop, where he hopes to do some writing, but instead meets an older hunk.
Directed by David DeCoteau, Leather Jacket Love Story leans on a strong ensemble — Sean Tataryn, Christopher Bradley, Geoff Moody — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 1998.
