Pons has aimed for a performance-driven drama whose virtues are of the small-scale, low-key variety, with the director working within narrow dramatic limits as always but here doing so brilliantly.
Elusive and compelling.
Stevenson's performance is at once clueless and fiercely committed, a volatile combination that pays off in the best scene: the mother of all PFLAG meetings.
A reserved coming-of-age story that overcomes flat acting and one-dimensional scene-building thanks to its lively plot.
To say the least, the chemistry is lacking; equally unconvincing is the all-British cast’s attempts at American accents.
Some solid performances and pretty scenery don't do much to conceal that there's a whole heap of nothing at the core of this slight coming-of-age/coming-out tale.
Crushingly airless film -- Food chokes on its own depiction of upper-crust decorum.
