COMING TO
Today's Favorite Gay Film Number Three!
We are getting to the top of the list!
This is a complex but simply told story of a young man so buried in family drama that he cannot see that he has his own life to live and, for that matter, a gay life.
For relief he has surfing and surfing friends who lead him to a love affair which in turn leads to his opening up his life to more possibility.
This is a very favorite gay film which is mentioned in almost every list and was highly regarded in many festivals.
The cast is great. The scenes in San Pedro where the young man lives are the real thing.
It is disturbing and joyful at the same time. How do they do that?
I have seen it before and am happy to see it again. And again, most likely.
That makes it a 5 out of Netflix5.
