“Boy, am I glad I was able to see this movie.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe movie is about a young gay artist haunted by a tragedy during high-school. I wonu0026#39;t go very deep about the story, but basically he fell in love with another boy during high-school and it didnu0026#39;t go very well. And believe me, not by the most common reasons. The story is really beautiful. Not having many characters, you get to know the 2 main characters very well and on the u0026quot;crucialu0026quot; moments it really gets into your heart. Except for Carteru0026#39;s coach, this movie has fabulous, gorgeous, amazing acting. You see the expression of anger in Darrienu0026#39;s face, whenu0026#39;s angry, the heart-felt tears, when he cries, and the sensitive smile when his with either his mother, his best-friend and of course, Carter. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003ePlot: 8/10 – The reason why they met (and why carter lives with Darrien for a few month) isnu0026#39;t very «believable» but a beautiful romance develops as the movie goes on and grows on you. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eActing: 9.5/10 – Excellent actors. Well done.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eFlaws: You never get to understand what are Darrienu0026#39;s mother and carteru0026#39;s father to each other. The movie is not very clear in terms of time. It seems as if only a few days have passed during the whole movie, but almost one year passed. (I think)u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003ePersonal Desire: I wish they could have developed a little more the relationship between Darrien and his mother. They could have made some touching scenes, since they were both great actors.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eIu0026#39;m glad itu0026#39;s not underrated, but having only 17 votes…. I suppose… not many people have seen it? Well, those people donu0026#39;t know what theyu0026#39;re missing.”
