Damn, sad that this reminds me of being in high school and how my parents treated me, I must have repressed some of that cause I always though high school wasn't that bad but almost every single thing in this movie happened to me except the over the top beatings and actually having someone who wanted to kiss me. In fact, the story seems like over the top victim fetishization but I can say that that's true only to some degree... anyway I have to say I wish a guy that liked me would beat me up because he hates himself for being gay, but then realizes he's in love with me, in fact I fantasize about this very thing happening to me all the time. What other reason is there to live quite honestly. Oh and I screamed when the teacher decided to introduce Oscar Wilde to the class after one of his students was just beaten up for being gay.
Now is this movie over the top? Yes... yes, very much, especially in the way that it veers into preachiness occasionally. I would have liked something with less of a soap opera feel. It's totally awkward, but still a good story. It did redeem itself, no matter how dramatic; it was very emotional, so that overcame some of the other issues.
