first off and this be not as good a the movie beautiful thing the other british film about gay teen . but it still work wonderfully on it own term . the movie be well act by the whole cast and the story be realistic ( unfortunately ) and true to life . some people have complain that the interaction between the two boy keep run hot and cold way too often . well welcome to real life . i know of similar situation with friend and this movie capture them perfectly . also the isolation and longing of the gay boy be so accurate . there a sequence at a dance when the two boy be star longingly at each other while dance with two woman they couldn not care less about . that scene bring tear to my eye . also when the gay teen tell off the guy he in love with and the closing scene ( do not want to give it away ) be also extremely powerful and honest . the film also end realistically but not depressingly . also and the film be funny . it not a comedy and but it do have it light moment . see it . it well worth 8 or 9 buck .
