    This is the second Christmas season in a row that I've seen a gay film that absolutely emotionally eviscerated me because of my identification with its story. And I am ... not sad about that at all.

It's beautiful, comical, and stunningly heartbreaking.

    It's challenging for me to even attempt to articulate how profoundly this film touched me, a Gen X gay man who identified so acutely with many of the themes, relationships, and memories it invoked.

    Every aspect of this film was flawless and moving, from Andrew Haigh's writing and directing, to Emilie Levienaise-Farrouch's sublime score, to the heartbreaking performances by Andrew Scott, Paul Mescal, Jamie Bell, and Claire Foy. I love this film so much that I've seen it six times…
