A very human story about love, abandonment and desires. It's smart and beautiful, with great performances and such reality into it. The characters are absolutely honest and easy to find yourself into -their stories so genuine. A sweet movie, gone completely under the radar.

I kinda love this movie. I liked that just because it envolves a gay man, the whole movie didn't have to dumb itself down or overwhelm itself with having to be a gay movie. His grandfather has a heart attack and so he goes back home. It's not stereotypical and I genuinely enjoyed...( read more)
Eric Schweig's performance in this movie is at the top of his game! He is so charming. His quiet guestures tell all. It has a surprise ending, that keeps all my friends talking!!

This is one of the realest gay movies that I have seen in a long while.
I love this movie! It can't be described. The romance is so touching and heartfelt. Nothing about it is risque or over the top. Its just a sweet story about two men who fall in love.
It's great to see gay men not being stereotyped for once. Just like 'All over the guy', I appreciated the film makers not making a cookie cutter love story but rather giving us a slice of real life with all it's complications and pit falls.
Gross doesn't have the spark of a star, and most everyone else seems to hail straight from central casting. full review
When you lay it on too thick, the audience is distracted by implausibility rather than identifying with the characters. full review
This board looks lonely. Be the first to talk about "Big Eden" !
