Having no idea what to expect, I found myself entranced by this film's omni-faceted approach to dramatizing the lives of a group of gay men. It seemed to cover all the terrain rather than any one aspect. It's not a movie about homosexuality so much as humanity, and there is a certain provocative ease the characters display with each other that comes from a mutual sense of vulnerability and the need to have someone to trust. Visually, the film is both careful and challenging. These men are all afraid of what they don't know, braced against the imminent, and yet essentially collected. I found myself identifying with each of them through strengths and shortcomings that were not easily detectable from the first. The relationship nuances hint at so many more layers than this short vacation together can define. I found myself feeling that I had had these same conversations in my life, that I was just as fearful, defiant, exuberant, resigned. The highlight of the film, to me, came in dual performances by John Glover, who handled his roles with a supple elegance that left a poignant vision in my mind of two brothers, light and dark, resolutely at odds and entangled at the same time. Overall, I found the watching enjoyable and liberating. It was pleasant to actually feel like a fly on the wall in a place no female could ever really find herself (hetero or otherwise). This film WILL put demands on you in areas of personal perspective. If you feel for these men, then you must understand them. Getting there might be hard for some people. For me, it was enriching and somehow intensely intimate.
