I was lucky enough to have seen this film at the Atlanta film festival this week, where members of the cast and crew stayed for a QA session. It's rare in this day and age to find a film that conjures tears without being cliché. It's also rare to see a portrait of male friendships that is so real, accurate and touching. No matter your age, orientation, family situation, gender- this film is sure to strike a chord within you. The main protagonist- a 23 year old from Lubbock- is an actor to watch. Film festival goers, this film has just started it's circuit. Buy tickets and enjoy- I hope this makes it into festivals like Toronto.
