I never said I don't like the movie. I haven't seen the movie... For some reason it's not playing here in rural Idaho... hmmm...
It might be a great movie but I just think all of the hype about how it is a "groundbreaking" film is kind of a joke. If it is groundbreaking because it deals with gay men, they're a little late. If it is groundbreaking because it deals with forbidden love, they're WAY late.
It might be a great film. It might be the best film of the year, I just think the hype is funny. This is a film we've all seen.
