beautiful and haunting

Simple proving that love will transcend anything. I think everyone can relate on some level, whether they want to admit it or not. I've loved a lot of people in my life, of different genders and in different ways, often struggling to find my own identity. As much I've wanted to throw societal expectations out the window and simply trust my heart, that isn't always possible, as the movie illustrates. Life is complicated for a lot of us, and more often than not we wind up role-playing parts we don't even understand, wondering where we got lost along the way. I like how Lee described it: They don't understand it, and when they think they do, they've already missed it. Awesome - the most powerful film I've seen in a long time, hands down.
