    Melodrama so heavy and so obvious it gives me a headache

    I have been spoiled by watching non-American movies. I used to say European movies, but movies from South America, some parts of Asia, and even Mexico are now as good as European movies. What movies from other countries often have that American movies almost never have is subtlety. Whether it's comedy, drama, suspense, sex, or any other genre, American movie makers assume American audiences have to be hit over the head with whatever they're watching or they won't get it.

    In this movie, for example, when Son catches Dad with Girlfriend in Hotel, then when Dad and Son catch Younger Gay Son in Cabin, EVERYBODY has to overact, so that the audience will be sure to get the point that bad stuff is happening. Why, oh why does Hollywood think we're stupid? Is it because we are? Maybe. In any case, this movie's drama is far too heavy-handed for me.

    In less than ten minutes, I already know everything there is to know about these three characters, and I'm willing to bet the "twists" other reviewers rave about are the same oh-so-predictable "twists" Hollywood has been delighting noise-deafened, brain-dulled audiences with since Witness for the Prosecution 60 years ago. I'd much rather have to take time and figure out for myself what's going on between characters than be hit so hard by the director and actors with such a heavy drama hammer that it leaves me reeling and nauseous.

    Situation Familiar...

    This movie draws you in then blows it providing plot complications of the "Oh come on!" variety. Someone as telegenic as Jason Behr would not need to write to a felon to find a shoulder to cry on. All he has to do is open his front door and select from the crowd waiting there to do him. Any one of them would put up with any amount of whining he needs to do.

    I was in a writing class once and we were asked to write a story called "The Father." That was the only requirement. 12 out of 13 people handed in a story that ended with a father-son hug and the exchange: "I love you son..." "I love you dad." Ugh! It's a scene that facile minds find endlessly satisfying but it's very, very lame. Perhaps this movie gets filmed over and over again because emerging gay teens require their generations hottie in the role of the gay son.

    I've never called my brother "Bro." Does anybody?

    DVD "Extras" Shine

    The advent of the DVD progressing from the VHS brings about a new opportunity for more information to be included in its format. It's quite similar to the LP recording's graduation from its 78 rpm predecessor, with the LPs providing greater space for including more material. Now the DVDs are offering most interesting "extras" in its packaging.

    One such "bonus" is the Commentary Track, in which selected production members provide verbal comments as the film plays throughout its entire run. Some of these tracks are excellent, one example being Director Anthony Minghella's for his "The Talented Mr. Ripley." The director there was downright eloquent, and his running remarks are most informative.

    In the case of "Rites of Passage" Director Victor Salva joins leading player Jasan Behr for a full-length commentary. This track is almost almost as entertaining as the film itself, as it offers fascinating tidbits about the production--some completely surprising, which makes one appreciate the dedication and effort that it took to bring this indie thriller to the screen.

    The commentary doesn't replace the movie, though, which is a fairly successful, if somewhat talky, enterprise. The cast is just fine, headed by the remarkable now-veteran Dean Stockwell, with James Remar and Rob Keith assisting Behr, who in turn offers a solid performance in the lead, difficult role of Cambell.

    Watching the movie and then going to the Commentary, one really can appreciate the process behind realizing this final product, shot well under a three week schedule.

    It's great to have the advantage which the DVD format now affords. I for one, really appreciate being able to be "let in" on the behind-the-scenes productional details. Of course, it can take away some of the realistic effect the film conveys--rather like being informed of how a magician does his illusions. But it's just an option that one may or may not choose to take advantage of.

    As a package deal, "Rites of Passage" is well worth the cost. As a singular film experience, it's a bit wordy effort in which the whole doesn't quite measure up to the sum of its parts. Yet there's no denying the cast works at peak level of commitment and effort in attempting to purge the essence of their characters.

    In the meantime, we can be thankful for the new opportunites the DVD format provides. There's great indication this format will eventually absorb the VHS technology -- just like the CDs replaced the LPs in the recording industry. Time marches on. Like, rapidly.

    Big Behr's Right Passage

    It's a pity that RITE OF PASSAGE is not more widely available and never received the praise it deserves. This is a complex film - an unusual mix of thriller and family drama. Queer cinema fans will like this one because of the matter of fact presentation of the sexuality of the leading character Cambell (intelligently played by Jason Behr.) Although this is Behr's film, he's in terrific company throughout, especially with veteran Dean Stockwell as his tough-as-nails dad. Watching these two come to terms (as well as Cam's brother), is the film's main dramatic thrust. The thriller elements are far from ignored, however. There are plot twists and turns a-plenty (only one of which seemed a bit contrived) and the story is a virtual roller-coaster of emotions. If you can get it on DVD, Behr and Salva provide an insightful commentary track and give you a glimpse of some more plot devices (and some super performances) left on the cutting room floor.

    An A+ movie, thriller and suspenseful

    This movie was an A+ as well as a very good suspenseful thriller. I recommend thins movie to anyone ! I feel that all of the actors were perfect for the parts. The deleted scenes on the dvd filled in some of the missing parts that might have made more sense to the plot when watching the movie.

      There was an additional scene, available on the DVD, called "Hello Mutha," and which included first Cambell and D.J. talking by the cabin fireplace which drinking beer, and then father Del comes in and they sing together, and Del praises both of them and kisses them on their heads, and then Del and finally D.J. go up to bed, leaving Cambell alone by the fire. Other than D.J. telling Cambell that "he liked Billy, and had no problem with him," the rest of the conversation is unclear, and no other character names seem to be discussed or acknowledged in the scene.

      Campbell Farraday: Billy's dead, he died a year ago. I guess he didn't fight it much or take is meds or something, because you can beat it now if you try - I just gotta think he didn't try.
