i be very surprised by the positive comment because there be four of u that saw this at one screening and we all walk out . we personally felt that it be painfully slow to watch and couldn not sit through the whole movie . and we really try to stick with it . in particular and those in the group who really want to like it because of their personal experience with sexual orientation alienation in the school year depict do not like or identify with it at all . negative . that say and it be great to see that this film really resonate with a lot of people here on the board and with reviewer . that the beauty of the subjective art form of film . positive .
