Ratings and reviews

This is gritty & poignant love story. It is different & for that reason an original story. You get to know the characters well, some you'll like & some you won't. The slow build up in the 2 main characters relationship has a lot of ups & downs but is something that neither of them can shake off. Then ending has a blunt end to the relationship & (if you're honest) you'll shed a tear at the final scene. Watch, learn, enjoy.

Sadly this is an hard film to watch after Heath's death at a young age 😢 may you be in heaven safely now 😫 precious one! I gave 5 stars because I love ❤️ Heath & Jake. The film would of been much better if it was just a love affair between them & no covering up scenes! (There were life long love ❤️ affairs between 2 men in the time it was set) then Jake's character wouldn't of needed killing off & we could of had an happy ending in the film before Heath's death 😫😫😫😫😫 now it's a 1 ⭐️ 😫

Emotive, endearing in places; horrific in others. There are no happy endings for anyone in this movie.
