Retake

This was a far better film than the rating reflects. Sure, it's kind of a downer and doesn't have the happy ending you'd hope for, but it's real, it's honest, and the acting and production are top notch. Just because a film doesn't give a fairy tale ending is no reason to give it a low score. When there are so few films about the LGBT community that are high quality and of some substance or believability, it's truly sad to not give credit where credit is due.

No, it's not a love story, or story of redemption. It's a film about heartbreak, and a broken man (two broken men) trying to find happiness the only way they know how or can think of. Sure, I would have LOVED it to have ended differently, but It's FAR better than most other fare out there. It can be tough to watch at times, but is ultimately worth it.
