Just watched this on Netflix.
This review contains spoiler.
The fact that this movie was made in 1998 this is such a great movie. The acting was wonderful. Very touching film. Rod was hot & sweet but turned out to be such a douche, which we learned through Eric’s eyes when he told Rod that he hooked up w a random guy “ He wouldnt even look at me afterwards. Do you think most guys only care about sex ? ” only to find out that Rod had only got back together w his ex. However, even though that was the case, Eric still managed to let Rod take his virginity twice front & back 🥲💀.
That’s all being 17 is about isnt it? You learn as you get hurt.
The movie did a great job of expressing the “ coming of age ” theme. I love that the actors are fairly attractive but in a normal way not heavily built & fake.
What started as a sweet love ended in a sad story of course because this was made a long time ago of course a gay movie would always result in a tragic ending 😩.
