(i'm totally for the story, its a hardship they are fighting through -- but do you get what im saying?) i guess i'm so comfortable with homosexuality and so many of my friends are gay guys that I forget it is hard out there for them sometimes -- especially back in the day <br /><br />it was too slow of a movie for me, i was probably in the wrong frame of mind for it and i had to turn it off but I'm not a fan of the slow depressing movies <br /><br />no doubts about his acting abilities though - i love him as well.Modern Hippiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07788631763981329402noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7745239881727787025.post-74105287493987538912010-08-05T23:12:41.060-07:002010-08-05T23:12:41.060-07:00I totally get the hype, because it's a compass...I totally get the hype, because it's a compassionate movie about a man who is desolate at the loss of the love of his life -- and he's gay. So the critics ooooh and aaaah and the Academy gives it cred.<br /><br />If it had been this artsy-fartsy, this painfully slow and this ploddingly directed but the love of his life had been a woman, it would have gone straight to DVD and ended up in a bin.<br /><br />That said, Colin Firth's performance in it was stunning. But I like him in everything.IslandPearlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07596765636568498186noreply@blogger.com
