Again I haven't seen it nor plan to (I have friends who have seen it and say when you strip away the controversy you're left with a typical Hollywood 'its ok to have an affair' film) but it *does* seem like a film that one would take a buddy to... a very special buddy.

But Warbler, why would you say "I'm not sure I want to watch it at all"? You previously said said about 'Crash' some things that could very well apply here:

I think it was unique and different, and contained great story telling, and was certainly not stereotypical.

t was somthing fresh and new, not the typical stuff that remake and sequel crazy hollywood puts out.

So who knows- it might a great film that fits that mold! Take a chance... take a buddy.

1. unique and different don't alway equal great

2. as you say: "whey nyou strip away the controversy you're left with a typical Hollywood 'its ok to have and affair' film" . The same cannot be said of Crash.

3. I have no desire to see a film about two men that want to have sex with each other. Should it be against the law? No. Should they be discriminated against? No. Do I
actually want to watch their romance and love making? no. If this makes me a bigot, so be it. *dons fire proof clothing*
