I found it very intriguing this movie, it most definitely captured my attention in the beginning with the concepts of gay being taboo and the 'gay camps' and how it secretly related to our main actors. I wish it spent more time drawing the emotional ties to the main character because as soon as Phop ran away from home the time-lapse jumped to him being a grown man with a woman whom he was dating and having a job at his old school. Now that I've finished the movie I understand what that section of the movie was alluding to but it felt like I was watching an entirely different movie, the grown Phop was an amazing actor but it just seemed like it completely abandoned the story in the beginning. I loved the idea of Dew being reincarnated into the actor Lui even though she is a minor in high school and the physical barrier that separates them is legally enforced, regardless of who Lui is psychologically and emotionally. Overall it was a good movie, one of those movies that have you waiting until the end to understand everything.
