I thought this was a beautiful film that told a quiet story about utterly decent people. It’s about family and love and caring, and there’s more Christian charity in this gay love story than in all the moralizing of the entire Religious Right. I deeply cared about these characters, and I was touched by their sweetness. I feel richer for having met them.

The performances were as quiet and naturalistic as the story itself. While there was a lot of sadness in the story, the overarching mood of the story was one of hope and comfort.

It was refreshing to see a film depict a gay relationship in such an understated way.
