This movie really conqueres a tough subject like no other film before it. Probably the greatest point was highlighting the mistakes he made in trying to keep his secret and the fact that his being gay doesn't change or excuse those mistakes, and he's still able to learn from them. The way his friends reacted was just so real and the character development was spot on for everyone. I really loved the family too. All in all; just a very real film about a very real scenario that many people face. Loved it.
