CGiii Comment

Wow...Dolan's conceit knows no bounds.

Actor, writer, director, producer...in other words, out of control...and, out of touch.

Apart from the story not making much sense...we are tortured with endless close-ups (me, me, me) and ridiculously written dialogue.The conversation around the table about Sarah...really?!?

The drug-taking scene followed by the tango...quite simply, stupefying.

Sarah's arrival...?!?

A nonsensical, self-indulgent, immature vanity project...nothing more, nothing less.

The(ir) Blurb...

The story of Tom, who is in the grip of grief and depression following the death of his lover. When he meets the family of the deceased, it is revealed the mother was not aware of her son's sexual orientation, or his relationship with Tom either, for that matter.
