Eyes For You

“I killed him.”
Thus, begins the emotional evening of Geoff and Alan Marks-Green’s visit to Atlanta, where Geoff is to write a feature article of the once-exquisite hotel, the Atlanta Biltmore, for Architectural Digest. The trip begins rocky when the desk clerk tries to give the young, gay married couple a room with two beds, rather than the king suite they reserved. Mishap averted, Geoff and Alan begin a cursory tour of the mammoth structure on their own, before a more formal tour scheduled the next day.
The couple comes upon a spectacular, large portrait in a gilded frame of a stunning young man in historical military dress. While admiring the painting of William Gabriel Daschle, a screen actor who appeared in Gone with the Wind, they are joined by the former manager of the Biltmore. Charles is a peculiar old man wearing frayed, rumpled clothing, with rheumy eyes and dark spots covering his hands.
After inviting Geoff and Alan to his rooftop apartment, Charles begins to share a fascinating story of wistful, forbidden love, of corporate greed, and of an endearing loss that will leave its indelible mark upon both young men.
