This is quite a refreshingly clever coming-of age story with Fionn O’Shea (“Eddie”) and Lola Petticrew (“Amber”) as two gay teenagers who hit upon the perfect ploy to make sure they are left in peace by their classmates: they decide to date each other! Their cunning plan deceives all their mates and even engenders quite a bit of jealousy from some of his pals whilst giving them a perfect cover. He is a bit smitten with his quite hunky teacher; she wants to escape it all to go to London and be a punk. It’s a touching little yarn, with two enjoyable performances from both as they come to terms with living and coming out (or not!) in a small Irish community very much un-used to things gay back in the mid 1990s. I haven’t a religious bone in my body, so cannot testify to the accuracy of the representations David Freyne makes of the church, but the Catholic nun’s sex education video is remarkably plausible (and bigoted). The writing and directing is uncomplicated. There is no bullying or oppressiveness which maybe doesn’t lend too much to it’s authenticity, but it does to it’s charm. It isn’t a gritty warts-and-all story of sexual evolution; it’s a frequently comical story of two kids coming to terms with who they are and what they want from life. Like any of us knew at that age….
Recent best
Teen movie is not my first choice always, but it did really interesting about the content of this movie. The teen is gay totally understandable that his teacher, dad, army mate – all are handsome n too cute. Probably the best Ireland LG movie I watch so far.
Right in the feels
As someone within the community, this story definitely touched my heart in more ways than one. I love the acting especially at the end when I was left with tears on my face. It’s good to realize that we’ve come far since ’95 but there’s still a lot more work left to be done.
