About Me

"Comic gold" Film Threat
"Wall to wall with talented new faces...[Gilmartin] has appealing charisma, personality, and good comic timing as he carries us through the film...He [has] a strong leading man sensibility...He demonstrates a true understanding of what an actor must bring to the role of the male lead in a romantic comedy: a man who has a personal sense of dignity, while having the ability to laugh at himself...An entertaining and successful experiment in romantic comedy." Films in Review
"Funny and charming. Strong comedic performances." Tail Slate
"Funny and witty. A must-see! Gallagher improvises brilliantly on lovelorn Manhattan." Mox Magazine (Germany)
"Quirky, loose and surprising." Film Crash
"Writer/Director/Producer John Gallagher has managed to top himself. After great independent films like Men Lie, Blue Moon, and The Deli, he's come up with Cupidity, a mockumentary on dating. Gallagher's expert casting has brought to life every nuance of insanity one encounters while trying to find the perfect mate. A must-see, great entertainment!!!" Comedy Matters
"John Gallagher is a well known name among independent filmmakers, a director with a big heart, a love for clever stories, and affection for good character acting. His love comedy Cupidity is a masterpiece of improvisation, an impressive piece of indie cinema." Filmfest Oldenburg, Germany

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Cupidity is a romantic comedy, set in New York City, about lost love, the horrors of dating and the importance of being true to oneself. James (James Gilmartin) is a nice guy. After getting dumped by a series of women, he finally finds Bethany (Bethany Emerson) -- the girl of his dreams. But there's a problem... James cant believe his good fortune and is terrified of losing Bethany. In his panicked state of mind, James takes the questionable advice of his best friend Stevie (Steve Stanulis), a male stripper who tells James that to keep a girl you have to treat her badly. James follows "The Stevie Technique" to the letter, only to have it backfire in his face. Bethany leaves James. Distraught, James seeks solace from his sister, Laura (Laura Fay Lewis), who sends him to a dating service run by the eccentric Dr. Cupid (Jared Miller). Hilarity ensues as James attempts to bury his pain and embarrassment by embarking on a series of dates with a gallery of some of the most neurotic and psychotic women in New York!
From the award-winning director of Blue Moon and The Deli, Cupidity is a brilliantly improvised, farcical "mockumentary on dating." Take a trip through the surreal, comic, allegorical, labyrinth of love that is...Cupidity.
