Rating: 5.0
Most touching film of the year
I showed this film to my sister and she couldn't stop crying. Neither could I! The passion shown between McKellen and Fraser's characters make this film the most unique love story of the year. Bill Condon's dialogue is superb, and is brought to life beautifully by these three actors (Lynn Redgrave being the third) who know how to carry a character piece. It's reassuring to see a film about a gay man teaching a straight man about how to love himself and be comfortable living in the world. Universal's DVD edition is gorgeous, with lots of helpful insights into the making of the film and a superb film-to-disc transfer.
