    Actually it's been discussed here quite a bit. Great film. Search the message archive, there are at least 3 or 4 long threads but it's something that's always worthy of talking about in my book :slight_smile:

    The book on which it was based is also worth the read. Used copies can be found on bookfinder.com for pretty cheap, or your local library probably has it.

    Yes, many of us gays have seen it. It's pretty well known I think. I've seen it a few times, it makes me cry(many sad movies do though, lol), especially when he jumps off the bridge and when his mother goes to the church and talks about how she killed her son.
