It does not hurt if you are a friend of bees. But the movie has a lot more to offer. It actually is about inclusiveness ... it tells us the story of a forbidden love. Of a time where people who loved each other couldn't publicly say or show so.
Not that the whole world has changed already and we accept love in all its forms. I never understood the shaming or outrage people felt for what other people felt or did in their own free time ... that was not hurting people (no pun intended), but actually is about loving someone else. If a man loves a man and that man loves him back - why would you have an issue with that? Same goes for the women combination or any other combo that does stray from the "norm".
Having said that, the love story and the connection between characters is quite strained. And while there is some nudity and some mature situations (in the woods for example), the movie is not trying to make the viewer a voyer - well not too much. We see things, but we hopefully understand why they happen and how the characters feel (I'd say the actors do a good job conveying just that and again no pun intended)
