Three Months

Sometimes charisma is everything. And Troye Sivan has that in bundles. He is just so suited for the screen, and a good actor too. A great singer for sure.

The film was very pleasant to watch. I truly enjoyed it, plus the bonus of seeing the great Ellen Burstein and Louis Gossett jr. - great cast.

I hope to see more of Troye in films, as well as music. He is such a huge talent.

Go see this movie. You will enjoy it.

This movie was a little bit on the sad side but it did clearly show a modern-day take on Hy-Vee. It was nice to see a show that provides some hope when it comes to dealing with HIV and AIDS. Some recent shows like it's a sin have concentrated more on the pandemic when it first came to light back in the 80s and 90s and how would that time it was viewed as a death sentence. Today there are some fantastic Pharmaceuticals out there that can lower your viral load to undetectable which also means untransmittable, and can allow for a long and prosperous life. Troye Sivan did a great job of acting especially for somebody who is relatively new to movies. I enjoyed the movie even though I was a little bit sad at the end but I won't give a spoiler.

With the genderliberace lifestyles of the modern era, but thats becausue im a grumpy old man, that has been strait since being concieved, and the closest ive come to gayplay is hugging my buddies, bashing around nightclubbing in the mist of alcoholic mayhem, admitting saying ''i do love you''in the heat of the moment, because friendship is love in a way i think. I used to have at least 15 buddies in my friendgroup, wemet each day, and the weekends where the same, ''drunk and happy'' as norw.pop group ''prudence'' sang half a century ago. Today though ive managed to loose contact with all of them, ive become an orthodoskly grumpy old man...

this film is a film of summer and llove and stain of the pain where the itching of living out your lifestyle hit you hard in the bellybutton. It can easily be divided in five chapters, the incident phase, after first test, after second test and the epilougous moments of the third test. What is tested is what gay people fear the most since leaving their closets, and thats HIV.

A very well acted , ok written stgaylife in a coming of age boy in south florida. Its decent filmatographed and filled to the brim with easyllisten' music and song that will hang with you in days of the aftermath. I do love this movie style of casual living and social realism when its durably done, and '' three months '' come s under the umbrella of this definition of mine. Though its not perfect its a recommend.

I like the attitude and people living in a non discriminated environment. Problems not change how we live but attitude does. I love the spirit of this movie and we are all equal, treasure the time when you are young.

Content

Premise: A boy finds out that his one night stand is HIV positive, and his test result comes out in three months. 'Three months' documents his daily life and emotional state of those three months. When I read the plot summary, my first thought was 'is this gonna be another tear-jerker soap opera?'. It's my personal analysis, and it may be wrong; however, LGBQ awareness movies tend to be emotional, melancholy, and grey. 'Three months' does not scream the message, but it's still strong and powerful. The movie is not preachy about HIV awareness or does not describe Caleb as a sad misunderstood teenager.

This is all possible because of how director Frieder chooses to tell the story in a composed way. There are not many scenes showing emotions of characters too directly. The lines are witty and short, and they do not overdo it. Writers really keep it simple but genuine and honest. It hits harder after the movie than during the movie. Emotions linger and resonate like afterglow. Photography, colors, and editing are very modern and young. Summery pictures and pastel colors allude to Florida and youth. Sivan's acting is something. He's so sincere that Caleb feels like a real person. I'm not sure he's a skilled actor, but I could tell that Sivan is telling his story in the movie.
