A well-done version of an old tale - they manage to make it interesting and Julien Baumgartner makes it feel like his personal story.

Sensitive and uplifting.
06/18/04
While Cazeneuve's story is about gay love, it also charts universal truths about adolescent romance and high school politics with great aplomb.

Top CriticWell-meaning and hopelessly bland.

Top CriticDoes anybody care?
06/18/04
Top CriticA sensitive coming-of-age story that, while not trailblazing in terms of originality, manages to be quietly affecting.
10/06/04
Couldn't be more honest or compassionate in depicting the handsome sensitive teenager's coming out story.
04/15/04
Resonates with earnest truthfulness and packs a surprising dramatic punch.
05/21/04
Genuinely engaging performances from Baumgartner and Maravalidealized are kind of wasted in this idealized and dramatically weightless coming(-out)-of-age story...
07/13/04
The story's celebration of honesty is commendable, even if the treatment of homophobia is no deeper than the hero's swimming pool.
06/17/04
Even if [it] has a slightly mustry, afterschool special message to impart...the picture delivers it with sufficient charm and complexity to escape TV-movie mediocrity.
10/25/04
There's a naturalness to the entire cast, yet there is considerable depth to the portrayals, and the interplay between the characters is exceptionally rich and nuanced.
06/24/04
Top CriticYou can see the emotions of the characters pass through the actors' faces and bodies. Mr. Baumgartner shines brightest, perhaps because his character is the most conflicted.
09/30/04
Top CriticThere are countless teenagers living secret lives right now, and they don't need hurrahs. They need honesty -- and better films than this.
