from begin to end and this movie be a dark portrayal of youth of today . it open with the perfect introduction to our character while the loner and anti authority focus of our lead fascination and the obviously small world of ben and for whom the story be tell . from the moment he lay eye on grant and you can see the longing in ben eye . the very need to watch every movement be reminiscent of those crush that most gay men go through a teenager . even a his friend warn him from the path he follow and ben can not help himself . it be up until this point that the movie be perfect . i felt it lose a point for the end and which even though i have a feeling be come to some extent and be still disappointing . i have hop that it would only end up with ben fall in with grant crowd of under achieve slacker and but instead it bring u back in time to when all story about gay people end in misery . over all and it be still a great movie and which be why i wasn not willing to dock too many point for my own disappointment .
