oh, i didn't feel that you were negative..and i didn't LOVE the movie either, but it had parts that spoke to what i have discovered latley, and that is that soicety as a whole is pretty closed minded and there is so much overt bigotry out there that it is just sad to alwyas have to rise above it...i am just a bit tender about what my new friends have to go through..so it hit me on a different level than it would have if i had gone to see it to be entertained.
i think the charachter was so uptight and anal about so many things, that even if she did "approve" of the relationship she was totally unable to express it in a way that anybody understood...
she was that way because she KNEW that the guy wasn't for her, even though she didn't admit it until later, after she fell for the brother....i also agree that they made it seem like a comedy, which it really wasn't..yes, the plot was trite...
so, the only part i really thought was good was the realtionship between the brother and his partner. that was portrayed in such a normal offhanded way, no jokes about it, no tv type sterotyping...but maybe if I were gay i would look at in in a totally different light...i don't know...i just thought it was a good for that reason..if i'm wrong its out of ignorance...
