I was surprised to see that I had not commented on this film here. I recently watched it for a third or fourth time on Netflix. I am not someone who watches things over and over. I like fresh bread more than toast.This film is different. It is an outstanding glimpse into the lives of real people. In fact, it would be hard to imagine a documentary about two male lovers that could be as honest. Tom Cullen harnessed the pain of practiced loneliness, armored with honesty. Chris New had the ability to act out a shamelessly spoiled narcissism which is neither mean nor entirely selfish. These two personalities together, trying to coexist in love and passion, capture an essential element of gay male dating life.Few films strike me as timeless. I am too old and cynical. But this film represents a timeless interaction between two struggling souls who wish to reach out from their comfortable loneliness. This is a common gay-male struggle which has survived liberation and gay marriage politics.

I wasn't expecting to be drawn into this film when it started but I was.The thing that many people in discussions didn't or haven't realized is that a happy ending wasn't necessary.The story was about how one of them was slightly afraid and the other was rambunctious and at the end they both had traded a little bit of each other so even though the sad goodbye at the train station wasn't what we wanted -- they did achieve something. They loved each other one was scared to love and be loved and one was scared to be open and the kiss and the last scene is a happy ending.I cried at the end of this and during it, too because I felt like I had lived it when I was in my twenties in London.The acting is so amazing.That's it really.

I wasn't much into the movie for the most part, I think I might expected something more direct from it, but the love we see from the Russel-Glen (two charismatic actors) relationship is something to digest and understand by watching them, it's not in the words they say ; it's all a matter of attitudes, eye contacts, gestures, hesitations… We witness the inception of love between two people, the first and sometimes awkward contacts, extreme and paradoxical proximity with a human being you didn't know a day before - to an always bettering connivance as the film goes by. The acting is very good, with a feeling of complete honesty from one character to another, and at moments it almost feels like the camera is hidden, discreetly filming the young and nascent love. All in all though, maybe because it's very intimate (here it might even be a cons), the movie isn't always captivating. The ending though is very touching, not to cheesy and sugary, and really makes the film even more worth watching.

The story line only covers two days and nights. The two main fellas put away a lot of beer, shots, pot, and nose candy! They quickly discover their true character individually and in each other through lengthy conversation and the opening of their souls. Glen is aggressive and unafraid of confrontation and Russell is passive and neutral toward life. These two discover a common bond through the haze of booze and a friendship/love is created. Then reality checks in!This is a wonderful indie film for people who want acting and a feeling of empathy for the main characters. You cannot help feeling sorry for Russell and his plight in just existing. Glen is his own person and will follow his own path with many Russell's along the way.A great piece of movie making - but it has a bit of trouble getting of the ground in the beginning. Stick with it because the art & entertainment value in it is a great payoff!
