The film is, though, a fascinating account of a man who plays a role in order to hide the reality of his life.

What are critics saying?
Village Voice by Alan Scherstuhl
The film is an adventure, a reason to despair, a chance to hang out with a great talker, and an often beautiful portrait of this city's promise and cruelty.
The New York Times by Andy Webster
Mr. Wirthensohn, who has known Mr. Reay since both were models, sees Mr. Reay’s life as a metaphor for the vanishing middle class. But Mr. Reay merely comes across as an aging casualty of Manhattan fashion, vainly chasing his fortune in a fickle industry that prizes youth.
A contemplative look into one man’s life, Homme Less has resonance beyond just Mark Reay.
Thomas Wirthensohn frequently sinks into dully positing Mark Reay as something close to the pinnacle of human integrity.
