CGiii Comment
This really is a flawed little gem - the two lead performances are tender and touching.
There are no drag queens, no sex scenes, no nudity, and no fancy cars.
It's a blue collar love story told with an absolutely fascinating eye for detail.
The major flaw is the character of David/narrator - unnecessary and irritating. That apart, Mueller shows an extraordinary amount of talent - it is a pity that he has made little else. His writing really is that good.
For an extremely low-budget production, this is a heavyweight despite its flaws.
Thoroughly recommended, a pleasure to watch.
