Male Mental Illness Well Portrayed
6 December 2022
Warning: Spoilers
A very good film about being mentally ill, which can affect anyone. Nice to see that it was a male , who is afflicted ( the only other movie I can think of, where that is so, is "A Beautiful Mind"), instead of the plethora of females, who are portrayed with that illness in movies, , along with showing that illness where everyone involved is affected. Good that they didn't show the mentally ill male as a psychopathic killer, either, which seems the norm. A must see for anyone who cares.

The actors are all very good and all underplayed in this sensitive film. There could have been a slight more emotion from the lead player, but he portrayed his love for the poor afflicted boyfriend, as per the movie title. More films, like this, should be made and interesting to see that it was gay themed with not the usual perfect gay couples either arguing or making love. In these days, a very topical subject.
