Straight actors pretending to be gay but no worries - they all end up straight at the end because the main character apparently was just waiting for his childhood sweetheart to lead him back to the promise land of heterosexuality. Gay male life is presented as nothing more than meaningless sex with no hope for love unless he comes to his senses and settles down with a woman. Throw in that old trope of seducing straight men into the "experimenting" with gay sex for a juvenile lark only to return to heterosexuality with a little maturity.
Apparently, even lesbian directors aren't immune from internalized homophobia.
As for all the fawning heterosexual commenters, of course you love this movie as it reinforces all your negative stereotypes about gay men.
