Here we have a 24 year old gay guy(Crowe) living with his father. It's just the two of them. The son is totally out and his father is totally accepting to the point that the father doesn't even mind seeing his son get it on with other guys in the house. Crowe looks terribly miscast and mal-dressed in this film. Half the time he looks like an out of shape flapper from the 1920s in shorts that are way too short and tight while maintaining a poor posture. Not a believable film. Seemed to be making a gay rights political statement more than a realistic depiction of being gay in Australia. Acting was OK. Didn't care for the chats directed at the audience.
