Why it’s a Weeknight Watch

With almost no lasting buzz and soft box office, it's a mixed bag. Fine if it's on; don't plan your night around it.

Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Right up the alley of anyone with a complicated family (so, everyone) and people who like stories about real, flawed people. Family ties get tested in ways that ring true.
The mood
Thoughtful and character-driven.
The pace
Quiet, then quietly devastating, at 1 hr 30 min. Done before bedtime.
What might put you off
Skip it if you need something light and fast tonight.

After a long stint in gay conversion therapy, James, a young piano prodigy, returns home to his family farm and his emotionally-distant father, Richard. After Richard pressures James to give up his music career and take over the farm, James agrees as a way to make up for his past. Soon, however, James finds himself face-to-face with a former lover, Charlie, who wants to help him turn away from his new beliefs and family expectations and follow his dreams of studying music.
