Clearly, I have been living in a bubble. I had an inkling that it was not generally a good idea to be gay and in the forces, but this documentary was a real eye opener for me. I had no idea just how savagely gay personnel were treated if their sexuality was discovered. I have nothing but respect for the people in this documentary, for fighting back against the awful, state-sponsored, homophobic bullying they endured. To think this hateful persecution has occurred in my country during my lifetime, is truly sickening to me. These people just wanted to serve their country - from what I can gather here, the country isn't worthy of them.

Great performances from the whole cast and particularly the three leads, Dinklage, Hathaway and Tomei.

A wonderfully original script from writer/director Rebecca Miller - she is new to me and I will be sure to look out for more from her.

Overall, an original and wonderfully entertaining romcom. I found it both funny and touching. Made me yearn for my own tugboat to sail away on...

I can't think of anything negative to say about She Came to Me. So pleased my brother recommended this film to me. It held my attention throughout - something I struggle with generally - and left me wanting more.

Don't let the weirdly low rating currently on IMBD put you off.
