Sexual orientation aside, it's the kind of film that can have you looking past family member faults and focusing on what's important.

A second look reveals everything wrong with the movie, but on first pass, it's well-performed and enjoyably crafted.

The novelty of this Australian working class comedy of manners is that sexual orientation is not a probelm. Father and gay son (nicely played by Russell Crowe) enjoy the kind of warm, amiable relationship thast's unheard of and unseen in American films
