The Journey of Jared Price is a gay-themed coming-of-age 2000 film written, produced and directed by Academy Award winner Dustin Lance Black and starring Corey Spears, Josh Jacobson, Rocki Cragg, and Steve Tyler.

[1] Nineteen year old Jared arrives in Los Angeles from a small town in Georgia seeking a different life.

He is hired by her son Matthew, who is a movie executive, because he wants someone to spend time with his mother so he won't have to.

The film takes a further twist when Matthew asks Jared to move in with his mother, Mrs. Haines, so that he can also look after her at night.

[2] Billy Masters wrote in Hotspots Magazine that the movie had "the feel of a gay indie afterschool special" and that Corey Spears "gives a genuine and nuanced performance".
