i read a viciously hidden remark on a previous comment state that this film show a bunch of gay guy romp around their gayness . this couldn not be more misleading . eighteen be not a gay film . it have only three gay character in it and one of them be the victim of prejudice of people like the one who write the comment and despite his confession of fairness . pip grandfather be not gay . the tender scene of the soldier and his sergeant be male bond at the crucial moment of death . but some people get appal by a kiss and welcome scene of gut fly out of a man kill by a bomb . the focus of the film be the straight relationship of pip and that sweet girl and their face their social obligation and parenthood . ralph rewes www . r1313 . info .
