Picture-perfect exemplar of the coming-out-in-high-school genre, done British style. Ben Silverstone gives an inspired performance. The passage into adulthood spurred by the intoxication of hormones is archetypal. The gay version thereof is a less well know but equally well-trodden path. A more recent cinematic foray, American style, is Dorian Blues (2004), which is equally well done, lighter in style, and with a more refined psychology. Both are excellent and worth a view.
