CGiii Comment

Good premise...unfortunately, it just doesn't work.

A little too heavy-handed, punching the laugh out of the joke is not the way to go.

The(ir) Blurb...

In true 1950's educational film style we watch as high school boy Johnny wrestles with a terrible secret. Johnny is a closeted-heterosexual. What will his dads do when they discover he's only pretending to be like everyone else.
