It is great film making first and foremost, and I think you would be doing yourself a great disservice in missing it. Not everyone is going to reduced to a sobbing wreck like I was. I think you are a very sensitive and perceptive guy and it might move you in ways you wouldn't expect.
I think I'll probably rent the DVD or buy it on DirecTV. I heard the blurb on this on NPR and I'm just not into the whole shame/forced to live a lie kind of thing that this movie seems to have. I'm sure my body will swoon at the love story and probably break as well. I'm just tired of watching the suffering/struggle against society. I love Jake and Heath, but

So, did your holiday party end up getting clunked by this whole experience??
