Jack Edwards:
I believe in family. I believe in fate. I believe you can turn for one second and miss a lifetime, but your past does not dictate your future. I believe that the people that you love *are* your life. That there are things worth fighting for. I believe we should all have the freedom to love... to create family and not be afraid of who we are. I believe in love. I do.

I saw this at this year's London Lesbian & Gay film festival ... and whilst I normally stay for the Q&A after each film ... this was one of the few that I couldn't bear to!
Don't get me wrong, I was carried along the emotional roller coaster with everybody else - I was welling up with the best of them ... but ultimately it was a fairly trashy film.
Some of the clichés and poor writing was simply inexcusable ... and some of the scenes felt as clunky as a home video. And some of the acting was fairly grim too!
Highlights were the male bodies, Jamie-Lynn Sigler and the beautiful Mike Manning.
If you want a slushy cry-fest, go for it, just be prepared for the issues listed above!
