And Then Came Summer (2000)
Very Good for A Very Low Budget Feature
Okay, despite what others are saying about this film, I found that the final outcome evoked the sweet, coming-of-age romantic feeling I was looking for. True, the film was slow to warm up, and the dialouge seemed flat a lot of times, and the acting of certain characters could have been better, but it was still a beautiful film about the budding love between two young guys. I found the character of Seth (Mathieu Smith) to be very warm. He's a gorgeous guy, and I noticed that not once in the film was his character mean to David. He was only loving, caring, and tender. I heard the budget for this film was like $2300. Whoever sees it expecting a movie with a budget like Adventures of Priscilla: Queen of the Desert, Trick, or Brokeback Mountain, of course they will be disappointed. I also know the weather conditions were very poor during the filming of the movie, but they still managed to pull it off. I especially liked the outtakes (bloopers) section of the DVD. It was really entertaining. In all, knowing it was a low budget film, I thought it was a very sweet, humble, romantic film about the growing love between two lovable young guys.
