If you're into dull and clueless movies, this one's for you. It's a prime example of the pathetic misinformation offered up by the film industry for way too many decades regarding issues of sexual orientation.
It's guaranteed to:
. infuriate any self-respecting gay people,
. insult the intelligence of almost everybody else.
