Michael Medved says that the film is about families that are torn apart.
He asked a homosexual caller if he would support a 42 year old man with kids who left his wife for a 22 year old woman.
Same issue of "being with who makes you happy".
Nothing but a selfish act.
La la la la live for today.
Yes, but the film doesn't advocate fathers leaving their children and wives. Infidelity clearly caused pain in the lives of EVERY character in this film, for many reasons, and it certainly is NOT saying infidelity is good or happy.
Then there's the other issue: that the infidelity was caused by the two gay men's tragic lives of being homosexual and in love with each other in an environment that never lets them understand what's happened to them. The simple and unfair response by too many is to say, "oh, they're just evil and gross, they should just stay married to their wives," -- as if they could do that so easily.
I think discussion about the film without actually seeing it is just... dumb. Or you can at least read the story.
Bingo. The movie review in five words.
