The acting and directing are ultimately fine, but the story was weird and gross. A 17 year old falls in love with a 25 year old after the 25 year old comes for a visit to see the 17 year old's father who was the 25 year old's college professor.

One of my problems was that the 25 year old and the 17 year old barely talked to each other before they decided they were in love, and this can ultimately be fine showing how a 25 year old like this would only be using the 17 year old for his own perverted reasons.

But, they decide to make the characters fall in love and have sex with each other, which is an even worse problem. A 17 year old shouldn't be having this kind of relationship with a man, and the 17 year old's dad says that he's jealous of their relationship.

And at the end the 25 year old gets married to another person and the 17 year old gets upset while they apparently still love each other. This movie should be about waiting until you're old enough to do these things and to understand the gross nature of these people not about searching for a love connection or that its okay to gay or to follow your heart, I mean those messages are ultimately fine but it shouldn't convey a message like that, because it's just going to make it sound like you support pedophilia and that's wrong.
