Title: Good intentions, but....
Product review: A friend recommended this film so I started to view it but had to stop after 30 minutes. I usually give films more of a chance but the sound quality of the DVD was so poor that I was either straining to hear what was being said or turning the volume down. (I tried it on a second DVD player with the same results.) The two main actors (Gregory Phelan and Victor Spirtas) were not too bad, but the script -- what I was able to make out of it -- left little to be desired. A bit too confusing and not conversational and realistic. The supporting characters were too clichéd and made the one scene of the introduction dinner difficult to sit through.The film's creators seemed to have made this film with good intentions: showing the effects of AIDS on the gay community by focusing on one relationship in particular. But, the script and the sound problems make it difficult to watch.
