CGiii Comment
It looks good. The script is diabolical.
The accents are a little bizarre.
This is Pons first venture into the English language (hopefully, his last) - he must have written the script in Catalan...then, got it translated by someone with limited schoolroom English.
It's not a completely horrendous...but, it certainly pushes no boundaries nor does it leave a lasting impression.
It most certainly is not Beautiful Thing - although it aspires to be.
Harmless piffle with eccentric acting from Juliet Stephenson.
Lovely music though.

The(ir) Blurb...
Paul, a handsome and talented music student is employed as the page-turner at one of the world famous pianist Kennington's concerts in San Francisco. Not only is Paul diligent but also extremely attractive, a fact noticed by Kennington and his agent Mansourian, two men at the top of their chosen careers. Kennington and Paul meet again in Barcelona, where the boy is on holiday with his mother, Pamela, who is trying to get over her husband leaving her. Paul and Kennington fall in love but this has very different implications for both men. Kennington rushes back home escaping from commitment. Pamela, meanwhile, begins to recover her self-confidence but Paul is no longer a child. Back in the United States Paul learns that his musical career is not going to progress as desired; he simply is not talented enough. Paul and Pamela will learn through their living experience how to build a deeper relationship.
