CGiii Comment
A young man who dared to lead his life differently - against the norm.
He is an intelligent, polite young man - there are many who don't understand him and more who refuse to accept his way of living - now, doesn't that sound familiar?
Penn's film is a moving testament to his young, alternative life.
Beautifully shot, played and written.
A very fine film indeed.
