Reviews

Joe Daniels I love the fact that this movie didn't follow the typical "Something bad happens then I learn from my mistakes and get the girl" theme. It was a movie of learning things about yourself and making mistakes along the way. "Knowing is half the battle" they say and this movie illustrates that quote perfectly.The character Bobby has always been himself no matter the situation. Even when things got 'hot' between Johns mother and him his faith never wavered for a second. The entire movie I kept waiting for the moment when he would put the moves on her and was very relieved when he didn't.Making Bobby and Jonathan bisexual and homosexual puts that twist on it to where it can't be a typical story. Correct me if I'm wrong, but this film really brings to light events that actually happen in real life, that everything doesn't just magically get fixed; you just learn from your problems and deal with them as they come.

ofdreams This is a rare and amazing example of how beautiful, courageous film storytelling can be used to touch people to say things that really make us think, really make us feel. These characters are totally captivating. The dialogue is genuinely unique. Nothing about this film is pat or predictable. I thought Colin Farrell was very good in both The New World and Pride and Glory (great films), but I developed an idea of what he is like, what he is capable of as an actor. His performance in this film showed me that he may be capable of ANYTHING. I was shocked that he could play this character and so wonderfully - totally amazing. I am won over.

cwilson-46 This movie disturbed me. The relationship with these two guys was dangerous and heart wrenching.The gay guy truly loved this other guy. But Colin used him and teased him when he wanted too.Then when they finally grow up and they move in together. Colin starts up with using him and teasing him - you know with the dancing and kissing and touching - something the gay man wanted from Colin for the longest time - then what does Colin do - fall in love with the weired fag hag they are living with. Then Colin does the unthinkable and sleeps with said fag hag - just as the gay man is coming home. Brilliant. Well of course the end result of the movie turned out exactly the way I thought it would. I'm not going to tell you here - but. At the end - I said out loud - so everyone could hear me - I said "Typical". And I got a lot of head nods and "MM-MMHM's" from the other movie goers.Typical ending, just like all of the other gay themed movies I have seen. The gay person is either beat to death, dies of a disease - or winds up alone, like always.

markibest The storyline (Michael Cunningham) is unique and the characters well developed. It's not a complex story but the treatment of the characters is subtle and you're left using your own imagination. Sissy Spacek is of course perfect. I was worried at first that Colin Ferrell was too obvious in his choices but it works well for this somewhat unpredictable movie. There is nothing in the film that comes out and says "this is what this movie is about" and ultimately it leaves you feeling sympathetic for the characters. Basically, this film is a good example of how a good story and all the right elements come together to make a very good movie. The story is within the journey of the characters rather than the outcome at the end.
