Good little film about the life of Joe Orton. Alfred Molina is great as his lover Kenneth Halliwell. Plus an excellent script by Alan Bennet.

Great movie, and a warning to treat your partner with a little more respect, I don't care how famous or handsome you are!

As a film, it's well structured but a bit flimsily plotted. Reasonably stylish, Gary Oldman is excellent, and Alfred Molina is good and does well with a pretty underwritten and awkwardly motivated character. Gets extra points for hot gay kissing.
