I have never cried so much over a movie. I bawled my eyes out for the entire duration of the film, even knowing what to expect. It touched me in a way that no other movie has ever done, and it made me feel like I was Bobby. I felt his pain, his loneliness, and the feeling like the most important person in his life hated him for who he was. And when he was at the breaking point, I felt it too. It made me feel unlike any film or artwork or musical piece ever has. I am honestly completely shocked at the effect this movie had on me, and I wish I had watched it a few years ago when I was in high school to understand what I was going through.
I recommend this movie to everyone over the age of ten, especially "non straight" people and parents with gay, lesbian, and bisexual children, but even those who do not. It really opens your mind and your heart as well as your tear ducts, so grab a box of tissues and a warm fuzzy blanket and get ready for your heart to melt away.
