CGiii Comment

The worst fake moustache EVER - did no-one notice in the rushes?!?

There are too many scenes that are unnecessary and a green plaid shirt that is definitely over-worn and threadbare.

It's not the worst film ever made, not by a long shot...

The performances are fine, the direction lacks the pace...necessary for such a tale - perhaps, a straightforward narrative would have been better than all the jumping around.

Not too bad...despite that moustache.

The(ir) Blurb...

In the carefree pre-AIDS late 1970s, Philip (Gregory Phelan) crosses paths with Guy (Kevin Spirtas) at a yard sale in a minor tussle over a green plaid shirt which turns into a deep and loving relationship, and a powerful journey through life, love, coping with the new disease of AIDS, and then death. They agree to have an open relationship, and they have outside dalliances, even while Philip realizes he's less into being open than Guy is. When Guy contracts AIDS, the relationship takes some tragic and unexpected turns.
