There are a few too many older men in David's life. While it's all ripe territory, a more focused narrative would have prompted the cathartic finale the film lacks. Still, Steel deserves praise for tackling as much as he does.

| Original Score: B+ | Feb 25, 2020

The film might not be doing anything revolutionary with the gay coming of age story, but it is heartfelt and honest. And at times, unexpectedly hot.
