A story of unrequited love

Rating: Null/10 (3 March 2001)

This is obviously a story of unrequited love. Missy is hot for Torrence and that is the underlying theme of the movie - the rest is just window dressing. Missy is never shown goofing around with boys or acknowledging boys at all. However, when she is around Torrence - she lights up! Her world comes alive in a rainbow of colors and sensations.
A tragedy of almost Shakespearian proportions, I was almost brought to tears as Missy and Torrence were arm in arm walking into the finals of the UCA event. Missy was so happy to touch her dream girl even though the relationship was destined to go nowhere.
As a good little soldier, who understands her closet role, Missy actually helps Torrence and her brother get together - even though it must break her little heart. Every day that Torrence and her bro are together it must wound her a little more - I hope she finds some solace somewhere.
As stories of heartbreak go, this is right up there with the best of 'em.
