Brooks’ messy feature shines brightest when highlighting the cost of Simone’s decades of repression, capturing the zeitgeist of being gay in George Bush’s America. Go to Full Review

3/5
In spite of the premise that reads more like a "Penthouse" letter, Brooks' controversial romance is much more heart felt and complex in examining both of its characters and their intentions toward one another... Go to Full Review

Leia S Oct 23, 2018 That was just god awful
Ron R Apr 2, 2017 It doesnt go deep enough and i didnt feel any passion. The teenager looks too teen (pinky and stars in her hair), and music sucked in such an awful way. It was as if Lifehouse were meeting a 'small town 90's rock band' to talk about breakup. Overated for suuuuuuure ! See more
