What an underrated gem! This deserves the same love thaf But i'm a cheerleader gets.

I love loser lesbians! This was so funny and incredibly sweet, and ngl, straight marriage genuinely sounds like a trap because we still live in a society too focused on making men happy and reducing the role of a woman to a mother/wife. I loved the character development the husband had tho. He went from pissed, to not understanding and then finally realising that their relationship made Carly feel alive all over again.

Make homophobes watch queer movies to show them how stupid they sound, because everytime i watch movies like this one i realise more and more than homophobia is literally the most nonsensical thing to exist.
