NekoHomey Purely Joyful Movie!

Brennan Camacho Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.

Wyatt There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

Fleur Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

kai ringler when i first bought this movie i thought that it was about a big family quarrel or something, had no idea that the lead character was gay, but that's okay because i kinda liked the movie. Kiefer Sutherland ..24,, gives a great performance as a gay man,, unfotunately we do not learn who gave Roy the disease or how he got it. His sister agrees to come to Boston because she needs the money,, finds out it is her brother and tries to leave but to no avail. She agrees to stay for his birthday party and the next day finds out he has AIDS. now she has to take care of him on a full time basis,, another plot in the story told through violent flashbacks is about how their mother was killed by their father and how he got away with it,, overall not a bad movie,, just slow in parts.

amanda0852 I hadn't heard of this movie, so didn't know what to expect from it. It is completely wonderful, with a little edge that holds you engrossed to the end. The acting is great, by all involved, but I have renewed respect for Sutherland's acting. It's filmed in Newfoundland and the beauty of the area is shown to great advantage; it simply sweeps you in and makes you want to go there immediately. Also noticed the music written for the film; very good, indeed. It's been awhile since a movie held my attention so definitely, but this one did. It will be a repeat performance in my collection, and a movie I'll recommend most highly to friends ....

p_yanna I knew next to nothing about this film and rented mainly because I have loved Kiefer Sutherland since I first saw him in Stand by me (and that's a difficult movie to love him in)His performance is simply perfection, never becoming too sympathetic, never losing touch of the character. Oddly, what has stayed with me is the flashback scene of him applying makeup on his dead mother's face, lipstick shaking in his hands.This is a complex and beautiful film, focussing on the relationship between brother and sister, rather than the glamorous world they are both working in or the mystery of who killed their mother.I know I must see this film again. I strongly recommend it.

caroledelm I don't ordinarily go in for "dying" movies, but Kiefer Sutherland is so talented, I made an exception. He was excellent in this film, bringing the character to life in a most believable way. I also like Kyra Sedgwick, but all throughout, I kept picturing Julia Roberts in that role - they're so much alike, in my opinion. I always love to watch Stockard Channing, who consistently gives a fine performance. She was the shining light in "Grease", which was otherwise pablum. Her scene in BTRD with Sedgwick, where they shouted curses at each other was hysterical!
