Today's film is a standard story of gay love interrupted by circumstance.

Just like a lot of other love stories.

Otra película de amor / Another Love Story (2011)

There are no reviews to link to. The DVD may be the only distribution.

A Mexican film. Two young men meet, fall in love, enjoy each other's company in many ways and in the process awake their gay desires with one another.

It is absolutely standard and nicely done. Some circumstances are different of course. A small seaside town. Nice moms and dads and friends. They were best friends as children. They reunite and discover there is more going on than they bargained for now that they are adults.

They live near the ocean so there are a lot of nice water scenes. I think this is a first film and all the ingredients are present. He is probably telling his own story or how he wished his story would have gone.

There is no down side. Good. Nothing bad happens. Better.

I liked it. It doesn't belong in my gay film collection. It is just not out enough and the relationship is muted. It is a "pretty good" film. Nice first try.

I will give it a 3 out of Netflix5.
