I know that I should appreciate this movie more than I do. The oppression of the time period is not lost on me. The storyline was, in a way, quite clever. Obviously the acting was nothing less than perfection, given the cast. I've experienced that self-hatred and how difficult it is to live with. Even though I've been out since 2015 (I'm 29 as of the release of this movie), I still have to remind myself to not care what others think in my personal life. But, in the end, something about this movie was lacking for me. I know it was necessary for proper development, but it felt too slow for me.
