Long but incredible!

Rating: 10/10 (29 December 2005)

It's been a long wait. I've been hearing about this movie for a long time and was dismayed to find that in it's opening week of Dec 9th it was only in LA and New York, so I wait for it to open here I live in the southwest a city of about 2 million or so, was expecting it to be playing at most of the cinemas in town....it should have been.
This movie has so much heart and soul to begin to discibe the rollercoster of emotion and realism portrayed in this to-be classic is beyond comprehension. The cinematography is rivaled only by The Lord of the Rings (Fellowship) The actors were giving the absolute best performances of their lives so far.
As I left the theatre I found myself making comparisons to Midnight Cowboy only realizing that what I was doing was comparing Star Trek to Star Wars. There is no comparison except that they are BOTH Oscar movies rather or not the academy agrees..well... Then the shame and dismay sets in that there just is no other movie to compare it to.
It is gay. Get over it and you will find there is more in this movie than you have ever experienced.
A+
