i have hear that this film be stylish and intriguing and but i just find it annoy . it be a while since i have see it ( and hopefully i would not find out all my memory be wrong and i be unjustly condemn this movie ) and but my memory be that the filmmaker try to portray leopold and loeb a victimize by an anti gay society and and that this somehow cause their horrible crime . i totally disagree with this point of view and and think it unfair both to homosexual and to bobby frank and the real victim of the story . i can not imagine why anyone would want to claim those two a martyr . i also think l and l be portray a a bit more sophisticated than they actually be after all and they be teenager who live at home . the film place them in a kind of fantasy world that seem like it should be score by morrissey . i just read an interview with one of the filmmaker that imply the film anachronism and such a the push button phone that character use and be mean to add brechtian distance . they certainly do that and but i happen to find it highly irksome . apparently a number of people find this movie interesting and but i would have prefer a less stylish and more realistic examination of the part homosexuality may have play in the leopold and loeb case .
