Hmm, no one has commented on this thread in a while..
But can you believe it, this movie FINALLY came to my podunk semi-conservative college town (thought they would never bring it, jeez) LAST WEEK... so we all went out to see it. I really liked it, and the theaters have been packing out for every showing, apparently... so I'm not the only one. And damn, I think it was quite well done. Not quite sure if it's Movie of the Year material, but it's pretty high up there... I think it should get an award just for taking a massive risk and running with it.
I also do not understand the fear that many TFP'ers have been expressing on this thread about seeing "man on man" sex... WTF? The scene was nothing, and I have seen FAR more explicit and even offensive hetero scenes on mainstream Hollywood movies. This was nothing like that... sure, it might be jolting to see something so unorthodox while surrounded by 500 strangers, but that's what going to the movies is all about. That has nothing to do with the quality of the film and everything to do with how comfortable you are with yourself and the sexuality of others. Get over the fear, people... it ain't doin' no one any good.
