story about two young men in england philip ( angus macfayden ) and eliot ( corey parker ) fall in love . philip tell his parent his mother think it a disaster his father ( brian cox ) remain strangely quiet . it turn out he gay too and his son come out be force him into a decision . low key drama . i catch it on pb ( slightly edit ) and then saw it complete on vhs in the early 1990s . i like it but can not say i be too impressed . for starter the low key aspect of the story be too low key . everything seem mute . macfayden and parker be ( surprisingly ) terrible in their role . i never believe these guy even like each other and let alone love each other . so a crucial turn halfway through do not carry the emotional weight it should have . the happy end all around seem too pat for me also . still it be brave to make a movie like this back in 1991 and get it distributed . it be well direct and well write . also cox be excellent in his role . so and it be interest in term of gay cinema it portray gay men in a realistic manner ( especially have hunky and masculine macfayden play one ) but it just doesn not come across strongly enough . worth a viewing but do not go out of your way .
