Painful but necessary journey

Huckleberry is a terrific tale of searching one's identity, entangled in feelings of love, passion, rage and guilt during teenage years. Most of us have had a pretty normal, but still painful journey from child to adult, but what if you are truly unique, and your sexuality is not what you are born with? What if you have to deal with more prejudices and rejection than the average young adult?

The actors are doing a fantastic job and really drag you into the story, with the sub theme and underlying question, how would we possibly have reacted ourselves.

What a Beautiful, poignant, gem of a film

This is a gorgeous film on all levels. Set in the late 90s with a perfect mise en scène set amidst desolate Ohio through all four seasons. It follows Huckleberry, convincingly acted by Daniel Fisher-Golden, as a transgender youth finding his way in a conservative town. He's in love with his classmate, Jolene, played by a luminous Sarah Ulstrup, and he ultimately proves he will do anything for his love. Every aspect of this film is well-executed, from the score to the story to the acting to the cinematography to the double-edged ending. Loved it and highly recommend!

Weighty high school drama

Recalling 'Boys Don't Cry', this weighty drama effectively forces you to consider gender identity in modern America. Featuring impressive acting all round, especially by the young leads, the film lands with some heft and leaves a lingering impression. A moving watch, which is both simple and powerful. Certainly worth a look.

love the angst

I'm a sucker for melancholy adolescent angst, and this definitely fit the bill for me. The acting especially was surprisingly good - special shout out to Sarah Ulstrop. Very nuanced. Really liked it. If you're looking to feel bad (in a good way!) check this one out.

Nice ... real nice...

There is a lot of crap on amazon prime... but this isn't on of them. The tone of the movie could not have been better! The acting was good. The Director had a clear vision and the story never went off the map. This could easily have a sequel. I'm glad I saw it. It job to all involved. I am not part of the cast , nor do I know anyone in the production.
