From the moment Bobby and Jonathan meet, they are inseparable. For Jonathan, the unconventional Bobby is a connection to a larger world. For Bobby, Jonathan's family - and in particular, Jonathan's mother Alice - represents a kind of stability that he hasn't known.
As they grow up, the boys grow apart, only to reunite in New York, where, together with the free-spirited Clare (Robin Wright-Penn), Bobby (
Colin Farrell) and Jonathan (Dallas Roberts) invent a new kind of family.

Wendy Crewson, Joshua Close and Matt Frewer; partly filmed in Toronto, Ontario.
I thought the movie was excellent. Colin Farrell did an outstanding job. His character had multiple sides to it but never confused the viewer because he was who he was. I have recommended the movie to several gay friends because it depicts some of their experiences extremely well.
In these times it is very refresher to see a new accept on the family life. A family that love each other and learn to handle things. I don`t know how anyone could rate this any lower than a 5 star.
