i think this is a classic and i'm glad i finally saw it. i could very much relate with Liana's coming out. i guess i was a bit frustrated with the way her relationship with Ruth went, but there is realism in the situation. i think the film teaches a lesson about how hard life can be when you face who you really are and things don't always turn out the way you expected. (btw, i hate this cover design.)
