Now that RC's star is soaring, this Australian film made early in his career has proved difficult to locate. It's his only performance to date as an openly gay man, so perhaps the powers that be wish it to "lay low" for a while. Problem is, it's also one of the finest, most positive films about gay people ever made. It's not about sex, but the love that binds us all and the good fight we all face to make that love work. Russell's his usual incandescent self, with a cast to match, and a script that makes their efforts pay off. Look for it, get it, cherish it!
