So many gay themed movies treat discovering you’re gay and coming out as this huge momentous thing and sometimes like in this movie, it really isn’t a big deal. This movie deals with finding that first person you’re attracted to / fist love. One major credit to the main actors is that the intimate scenes were very clunky and awkward, which they should be, but is very hard to pull off when making a movie.
Overall it’s a great movie to watch and one that some people will watch multiple times.
