B-
After 16-year-old Steven (Silverstone) hooks up with track-team Adonis John (Gorton), they struggle to hide their secret sexual awakening amid rumors that there might be gasp! gay teens at their prim Brit prep school. Parents are shocked, students are scandalized, and we're mildly entertained as this sweet, well-acted affair hurtles toward its indie-afterschool-special ''gay is okay'' conclusion.
Reel Goodies
