i rent the movie double jeopardy one evening and be skip through the preview when i saw the trailer for this movie . i have hear about it before from a few friend who have see it and have read about it in time magazine and not know much about the movie . grow up in a household where be different in that sense be not acceptable and it have be hard for me to deal with my issue without support from my parent . i go to the local video store a few night ago and immediately pick out get real to watch and enjoy . what i do not expect be how true to life this movie really be . get real be the story about a 16 year old gay teenager name steven carter ( play by the boyishly adorable ben silverstone ) who have know about himself since he be 11 year old and be perfectly fine with it . although he be die to be accept for who he be and not for who he pretend to be and he be afraid to tell his peer and his parent about his true nature . only his best friend linda ( charlotte brittain and who deliver a terrific performance ) know and be worry about steven and due to his sexual adventure at a gay men restroom in a park . but one day and he unexpectedly have an encounter with the straight high school jock john dixon ( brad gorton and who play his role of someone with much sexual confusion with complete realism ) and the two boy fall in love . steven want to be open about the relationship and while john want to hide his love for steve . these difference and along with many others than i will not spoil for those who have not see this and lead to one of the most tear jerking ending i have ever see in a movie . bravo to everyone involve for create such a realistic story . be gay be not easy these day and especially for teenager and but we all wish we be as brave a steven and who mature a the movie go on and we all hope the best for him a he embark on his emotional recovery after the end of this movie . way to go steven . if you haven not see this movie and see it soon . it be worth your every buck . rating represent positive . rent this m .
