The first of two Mormon films.

Or films about gay Mormons. There aren't supposed to be any but they made the movie anyway.

The Falls

Two missionaries find that they are attracted to each other. Which they are not supposed to be. Of course.

It is nicely done and not too hard to believe. Faith in the power of gay helps.

Everything is believable except the extremities of the faith but even that is done without too much extra coloration.

I have seen it before. It is a Romeo and Juliet story with boys.

They are handsome and fun to be with. A nice film and not at all didactic.

Well, hardly at all.

Note: One of the boners in the film is that the Dad has a hole in his left ear which makes his pleading with his son a bit less dramatic. It shouts "this is an actor".
