Pick a Brother, Any Brother...

For those of you who saw a June Powell movie during Wedding Week and thought, "I love that movie," and then realized it didn't have a bunch of handsome brothers running around in technicolor-toned dress shirts, don't worry, I have your back.  

When you're gay, people often ask "when did you know you were gay?" and while that's a silly question that you usually respond with "when did you know you were straight," if we're being honest, it may have been the barn-raising dance in Seven Brides for Seven Brothers.  I don't know what was in the water up on the Pontipee farm, but my reaction to them certainly would have been similar to Julie Newmar's.  Below, you get to pick one brother (and only one brother-this isn't that kind of site!) to be your fake husband for wedding week.  Some of these guys became more famous than others, so picture quality will have a range.  And Tommy Rall has already been called.


Adam (Howard Keel)


Benjamin (Jeff Richards)


Caleb (Matt Mattox)


Daniel (Marc Platt)


Ephraim (Jacque D'Amboise)


Frank (Tommy Rall)


Gideon (Russ Tamblyn)

Whose your pick?  And for the curious, below is the famous barn-raising dance:
