I had never heard of the movie at all before seeing it - saw it from my movie channel...
As soon as I saw the Toronto Maple Leafs, I was set up to be disappointed, but am glad I perservered. Hate to say it as a Canadian myself, but Canadian-made movies do not inspire the best expectations.
I am SO happy about having seen Breakfast with Scot. I just loved the whole idea that the gay couple was worried about the kid being "too gay".
Just because I haven't seen a kid like Scot, doesn't mean they aren't out there, however, that was the only part that seemed a little far-fetched to me. Everything else seemed like that's the way it would happen given that circumstance... The acting was fantastic and the plot itself was just so unique and refreshing.
And, of course, having watched it with zero information, I had no idea there was any kind of gay theme whatsoever until the plot revealed itself. This movie is not about being gay - it is about relationships. The 'gay' part of this movie should hold no bearing on whether to see it or not. I am not gay and I LOVED it. I bought a copy. In fact, I bought two copies and gave one to friends of mine that I felt might be not open-minded enough to see it on my simple recommendation. They enjoyed it too.
Everyone should see this movie. You will laugh out loud!
