just crying and spitting up bread in the supermarket isle. no of course i don’t care about the workers. just showing me male ass shots with no prior implication of said ass shots. no it wasn’t already obvious they had sex. aussie accent makes this painful to listen to and unfortunately while i am trying to stay invested in these two i have other homosexuals on my mind and the acting is horrible. forest scene at night? you could never be beautiful thing (1996). deciding to hang myself in the dead of night with no thought of my boyfriend who will wake up with me in front of him? yes i think that’ll go over fine. did we just have a perfectly fine time and emotional heart to heart? yes but i still think i might just use that tire swing anyways. hiding that im gay? yes i’ll probably still leave tapes of me kissing a guy in my tv.

Another gay drama film with a great script and a fantastic cast that unfortunately falls short by drudging into the stereotypical sappiness expected of these films. It's disappointing seeing a film with potential being squandered by the need to fill a nonexistent void with a ridiculously turgid finale.
