But for all that, I loved it! Many of the usual clichés were there. Herr Hoffman didn't want a gay son, Frau Hoffman would want a kid to be happy. There's the female best friend - or to be unkind, the fag hag. There's an unreconstructed homophobe. And a teacher who seems to have sussed the situation and inspires Max to write his love song.
The actor playing Max clearly can't play the guitar and someone else is doing the finger work for him.but he did a pretty impressive job of singing the song he'd composed for Leon.
Sugary sweet this short might have been, but it brought a lump to my throat as Leon moved forward. And it brought a laugh to see Herr Hoffmann's face right at the end.
I recommend it for a bath of fuzzy sacharine.
