The first thing that came to my mind after watching this movie is, “Wow, they actually ended up together and none of them died”. Most LGBTQ movies that I’ve watched usually have a tragic ending, so I was so surprised and satisfied that in this movie the male couple reconciled and stayed together. I thought it was kind of similar to Brokeback Mountain in the sense that the wilderness sort of intensifies this animal sexual behavior.

It was also interesting how the movie displayed this lonely character and that it just takes one person to change your whole life. Gheorghe showed Johnny how to truly be with somebody and this shifted his life forever. Even the relationship with his dad improved once this loneliness was filled with love. Overall, I just think this is such a refreshing and positive movie.
