Beautiful Thing

i gave this a five start only as it does go higher. it is a great, fantastic film and a must see.
you have to see it to see how good it is there are no words for it.

This is truly one of the best films ever made on these shores (in my mind anyway!).

The 2 main characters each have their own problems with coming out but the fundamentals are the same - growing up on a council estate in a time when being gay was a much bigger issue than thankfully it is now.

The other characters also have their problems stemming from relationships, personality clashes, close proximity to neighbours and much more and this all blends in well with the main storyline and in fact, adds weight to it. The message is simple, there are far more important things to worry about than someone's sexual preference.

The ending does seem a bit far-fetched but that doesn't take away from the warm feeling inside that most people will get by seeing it.

I lost this DVD in a break in and couldn't get it replaced on insurance due to the film being out of print at the time. I can assure everyone that this is one film that I am more than happy to pay for again.

this has got to be from far the best film i have seen in a long time i watched it round my friends , and it was outstanding from start to end.
i have now watched it over 40 times and still love it as if it was my first time watching it . if you have not seen this film i urdge you to get it and watch it you will just love it .
i rate this film 100 stars as i can only go to five with play .

Warming,Classic one liner's,cannot fault this movie funny and, well buy it and see

This film is my all time favourite. I first saw it in the cinema (twice) when it came out, but I haven't seen it for a few years as I only have it on video. So pleased to see it here on dvd. It manages to be hilariously funny whilst dealing with difficult issues and takes you on a real emotional rollercoaster. Love, love, love this film!
