    Quite an emotional short film albeit disturbing in some respects. Acting and story were both good. I pity youths like Roy (a beautiful guy) who grow up around slutty parents and sometimes have to sell themselves for money. Roy and Maurice had a bittersweet relationship (relationships between older and younger people grosses me out, no offense to anyone). I liked seeing Maurice more as a father figure to Roy as opposed to a lover personally. Sad how Roy really did not have anyone to turn to in his situation, especially with his Mom going through tuberculosis. This is a story lots of people can identify with one way or another. It is good Elizabeth did not leave her son in the end and he stayed by her. At the end of the day, family is all you have- those who really care above all.

    Isn't it great that the only ones i have true trust are my mother and father? Ik they would never leave me, and when i think about how i don't have real friends, they just appear in my thoughts ans i remember that they are my true friends no matter what.

    This is sad. That bastard is the one who should be working instead of his mother.

    lindo !... as igrejas sempre prega que os homosexuais  são umas besta mais é porque Eles são um dos que ainda servem a Deus de alma e Espirito , porque tem entranhado em seus corações o amor incondicional pelos os seres humanos, independente de todas sa perseguições que sofrem por serem feitos diferentes dos heteros . são chamados de todos adjetivos possiveis por estas igrejas antcristã que se dizem cristas e evangélicas , mais elas não respeitam os seres humanos como Deus os criou, mais os homosexuais são não só no filme que cuidam dos pais sempre que estes precisam , mais de qualquer pessoas que tem uma nessecidade  ..tenho certeza que esta sociedade machista e essas igrejas podres. vão ter que rever os seus Dògmas se quiserem receber o perdão do Verdadeiro Deus . que criou os ceus e Éle o dono da vida.

    A Man of No Importance (1994)

    Alfie Byrne is a middle-aged bus conductor in Dublin in 1963. He would appear to live a life of quiet desperation: he's gay, but firmly closeted, and his sister is always trying to find him "the right girl". His passion is Oscar Wilde, his hobby is putting on amateur theatre productions in the local church hall. We follow him as he struggles with temptation, friendship, disapproval, and the conservative yet oddly lyrical world of Ireland in the early 1960s.
