    Because of movies like this, hope we can end culture clash

    I disagree with the previous reviews; different tastes opinions make the world go round!

    I thought this was a lovely movie, and I look forward to the day when we are all allowed to love whom our heart wants. I pray to see it in my lifetime.

    Well written Joseph Baird, and great acting to all the cast.
