the movie is so realistic and so sad. I think it shows problems people have being gay but also the troubles in a relationship of any kind. so its a two fold layer of plot. it also is so well done if you view it from the human psychology perspective. the last bit is very emotional. but also has a lighter side to it specially when that lovely mother comes into the movie. very inspirational indeed. it is nice how the protagonist has so much pain to handle in the end. however he manages well by writing a book. which again does two hings one is to preserve there love forever but also in a way that redeems his earlier book. this one he wrote from the heart not from his mind.
