This is a very real flick, as it depicts the ups and downs (mostly the downs) or a gay male couple (there are a few sub-plots that deal with straight and lesbian relationships as well. Told as a personal account of events with talking heads sliced into the actual story - it is not always understood at what time they are shot but they are shot by one of the guys so it's a bit confusing as to how the filming of an interview was done and when - and all add up to a very real, and really very happy, depiction of a relationship. The fact that it is a gay couple that is the center of it doesn't really make a difference as far as the viewers go. There are a few kissing going on but that's the extent of the exposure. There are SOME issues that are very gay-related but similar things would have happened between straight couples as well (as cheating on your partner, fearing commitment, and so on). Acting, script, photography and sound are very reasonable, with the exception of two of the actresses whom I would replace. Editing is very practical so a a whole the movie comes across as being very mature and not too show-offy. A very decent flick for an introspective look at gay relationships, and not only that.
