Every once in a while you come across a film and you know that it will not leave you for a long long time. And this is one of them. It's fresh, authentic and tender. And on a side note: yet another example of great British filmmaking and acting at its best (and I'm not British) so well done.
The ending scene when warren realised he loved mark and lost him .The thought of which made it harder for him to breath was really touching and heartbreaking.
@@burton2r2 I think Mark broke up with Warren because he thought about his mom’s story. His dad was with an other girl called Jennifer before mom "stole" him from her. And when Warren is ready to break up with John to be with him, Mark doesn't want that. He doesn’t want to be the reason of the breakup and end up in a relationship similar to his parents
@@Ryanmanification agreed. The only thing that could save Warren in Mark's eyes is that Warren broke up with his boyfriend and left the Stags in the meantime they had no contact. Meaning that Warren did this from his own will. I do wish that they would expand Warren's backstory a bit more. Did John save Warren from a life of criminal and how so? Doesn't make us forgive Warren but could understand his motive. Now he looks a big coward. The ending could be Mark just content and happy with the Stags family, signaling he wants to be a single for a while. Now the meeting with the new guy at the end cheapens the whole Warren affair.
this movie focus on Mark and Warren, but maybe Warren loves John even more and that's why he chose to stick with John at the end? Anyway this is humanity and there is no right or wrong, such beautiful movie
I was very privileged to be at the world premiere of this film, at this year's BFI Flare film festival. I was blown away by this film. What at first seems to be a film about two gay men who embark on a relationship, spins out into a much bigger story about gay men trying to navigate life and love and friendship. I really enjoyed watching it. I would highly recommend the film.
@@daibach9044 You do have a chance to see what is out there and you can have it for the rest of your life. You are probably in a country where homosexuality is forbidden and a country where your parents will throw you out of the house, arrange a marriage for you or even have you killed. Are those the kind of parents, family and friends you want by your side for the rest of your life. Your heart and your brain need just a few things to get you out of that life. If you are truly sincere about being yourself, you need to ask yourself what it is that you need and what you must do.
actually i love the movie idk why people slandered this movie bcs "typical men" bullshit, it's a movie we're for the story not looks although the rugby part seems a little bit hyperbole with the music bcs it's cinema type of stuff.
this is it, this seems like proper writing of gay characters, written as human beings where their sexual orientation isnt the focal point despite being a formative element of themselves and not painting it as an add on, will watch for sure. I have stopped watching movies centered around gay people and gay couples because they never write them as human beings but as tropes and from a heteronormative heterosexist and homophobic lens hope this movie wont disappoint.
True. I think people need a character which happens to be gay. Like it's an element. Not a gay character(ie. where everything revolves around the character being gay)
The way warren crying because he knew that he is too in love with mark but meanwhile he cannot end up his relationship with john… it’s really breaks my heart :(
I'm sorry but Warren was an incredibly greedy, borderline sociopath who used every man he bedded for his own gains. I was honestly surprised it wasn't revealed that he had a predatory tendency to cheat on John with other members of the teams, which would have at least explained why the one teammate looked at him so contemptuously. He may have realized he ultimately did Mark but it was beyond too late and the damage he had inflicted was beyond any form of forgiveness or redemption, hence why he went back with John.
this movie is remarkable, from the script to the actors. you can clearly feel them entering you throughout the film and beyond. i didn't expect a better ending, i wanted to scream at the producers that even gay people deserve a happy ending but thinking about it this is what warren deserves: i can only wish him to wallow in his pain and his web of lies continuing to being afraid to step out of his comfort zone for something better. I can instead compliment mark on how he stood up and wish him all the best. for once a different but realistic lgbt film, without homophobia but with a deep meaning.
@@desqua2497 nah, he would never leave his boyfriend. his final willing confession was just an excuse not to let mark live his life without him. he couldnt accept he moved on. he learnt nothing
I watched it. I found it relevant, compelling and so authentic. I’m a gay man that has played on gay sports teams and saw dynamics that was portrayed in this film, and I had moments when I felt their conflicts, the struggles of taking that leap of faith out of toxic relationships and hoping that by doing so maybe, just maybe, I would be the exception instead of the rule. Please watch this to see that this isn’t as topical as you might expect it to be. The depth of the characters was so moving. Alexander Lincoln and Alexander King were perfectly cast as the leads, yet I have to say that each of the actors were on point in this film. This is what I want to see in Gay Film, and I want to thank everyone that Kickstarted this project because we have needed something more than the many mainstream uninspired stereotypes. Thank you, Matt, for your hard work that was the driving force behind the making of this film. You are amazing and I hope that this will be the start of some more inspired experiences. You scored a try with this one, and when I saw that you composed and performed many of the songs, as well as the ending animation and even was one of the drivers for getting this project done won me over. I’m so impressed.
Well written, well performed, a Great and Lovely Story, I loved every second of this movie. Just finished it and couldn't hold to come and give my opinion about this masterpiece, I really enjoyed it and from today my favorite. Remarkable movie
So few could ever understand the impact this movie has had on my life.... The character of Warren is by far my favourite - his character reminds me somewhat of myself. Any movie which centers around Rugby is automatically a favourite, but add to that a gay theme with love, lust, hidden passion and you have a real WINNER ! Bravo ! So nice to see masculine gay men - we are becoming a minority compared to all the new shows chock-full of drag queens and nelly guys playing Barbie !
Beautful film made me cry, I wish the ending wasn’t so damn sad as it really effected me, sometimes we get stuck in cycle and this film reminded me that being stuck can sometimes be the most painful. Outstanding and beautiful 10/10
This is the greatest movie of 2023 I've seen so far! A masterpiece, all the actors acting and those scenes are just so realistic❤️ you could feel their emotions and everything. I couldnt hold my tears🥺 But we fans definitely deserve a sequel! We want part 2 of it!
the best movie I've ever seen... I would have expected it to be even better since it meets all the specifications... But whatever it is, for a romantic like me, it's a legendary movie!!!

I so enjoyed this whole movie. Mark and Warren had absolute chemistry. Even when Warren was willing to break up with his partner to be with Mark, I thought there will be a happy ending, but no it didn't end as I thought. Also Henry is so in love with Mark, I think that is why he would always get so drunk. Overall excellent movie. Please give us more like this. Especially some with beautiful ending 😍
This movie is unbelievable I just fell in love with it in so many ways. This should be a show like queer as folk. I want to know about all the guys and much more about the game. Gee this NEEDS TO BE A SHOW ❤
Just finished watching it and bawled my eyes out on just how authentic it is. Not just another fantasy but rather something so real, the actors did amazing.
This is one of the best LGBTQ movie out there, loved every minute of it, All actors did a great job with their characters, ending was quite Emotional but totally what mark needed to do,
No way, never. How could you even say that? I wasn't drawn into the story at all, they chose nice actors but no talent for the subject matter. im sorry LOL
Nothing wrong with that. It means you can emotionally engage with a character and have a good understanding of human dynamics. We need more empathetic people in the world.
okay... I've watched the film several times, because this film is good. But, the most important thing I can find the meaning of this film. The meaning is that love is never wrong it's just that the time is not right. Why? How Mark and Warren fall in love even though they both already have their respective partners. The points that I can take so that I find the meaning of this film are: 1. Mark is cheating on his boyfriend, because his boyfriend is busy with his personal affairs so he forgets about Mark, he does love Mark but it's just that he doesn't have enough time with Mark. 2. Warren was the worst, he cheated on his boyfriend who was even in the same group as him, he thought that spending one night with Mark wouldn't be a big problem for his relationship with his boyfriend, but it all happened outside his expectation was that he fell in love with Mark. 3. Mark decided not to be with anyone, he ended all his relationship with his boyfriend and Warren, even though he knew he was also in love with Warren, it's just unfair for him if he was with Warren but he had to break up with his boyfriend. 4. At the end of the film, Warren admits that he is in love with Mark, he even asks Mark to be with him, because at that time Warren is going out of town with his boyfriend. But, Mark refused because he knew his relationship with Warren would not be smooth even if they were together. 5. Mark told his mother that he and Warren were just friends with benefits, or just friends. However, his mother knew that Mark was having an affair and his mother made sense of it, because Mark's father had also had an affair with another woman, but his father still chose his mother, but with the story that Mark's mother did not find a way out at all, instead he was angry with the attitude of his father who had an affair from his mother. These five big points are the points that I think are the essence of this film, so I can conclude that "Love is never wrong, it's just that the time is not right".
I have seen this movie, excallent Mark did excellent work on his acting, once leaves his boy friend of Warren, again want to come his life but Mark said don't need because if they are not giving respect in front of everyone better you have to leave and not expected again to come Mark's life. Wonderful✨😍 👏👏👏👏👏.
I was surprisingly impressed by this one. At first wasn't too keen on yet another film centered around sporting, but I think it homed in on the more relatable quality of the sport. Not the technicalities of the rules or even the competitiveness (wonderfully telegraphed by the fact that the only point at which the sport's "laws" were relevant was at the end), but friendship and comradery amidst drama of romance and such. It was sad, real, frustrating and adorable, pointing out a lot of the flawed toxic thinking of males, even when in a queer-positive space. Not really resolving them in ways that are the healthiest, but in a net positive and mature way you'd at least hope for. Nearly cried at the end. My major sentiment throughout was that it's so sad how people get in their own way by being too afraid to confront their own emotions in a productive logical way until it's too late. But at the same time how beautiful it is to have found a family that you can stick by through drama. Very well done film, great score and excellent cinematography as well. Every single shot was a vibe and that alone made it stand out.
This movie is amazing. Loved the essence. And actually I liked the corners of it , like how mark made the decision, I wanted them to end up together but I liked how it went on the right path- sorry for my bad English
Una de las mejores películas, por no decir la mejor, que he visto. Me he enamorado, ilusionado, reido, entretenido, llorado, etc.etc. los actores geniales, gran interpretación, lamentablemente no tuvo un final esperado por la linda pareja que hacen Mark & Warren. Por favor más películas así, en verdad ya cansa las películas de temática gay con adolescentes. Las edades de los actores en esta película es perfecto, me sentí varias veces identificado con algunas escenas. La recomiendo 100% no se van a arrepentir. Saludos desde Lima, Perú.
@@HumanSagaVault It is a story. That’s the purpose of films- to tell stories and possibly to learn something from what these characters go through. Characters in films do not need to be perfect representations of human beings. People are flawed (including gay people) and that’s what makes a story interesting. Maybe we aren’t all as perfect as you??
@@HumanSagaVault yep, they both are. Hoped for a better movie. But we get horned up gay men facking. I can get that on other platforms. Depressing movie.
*spoilers* I absolutely loved watching this movie… Mark was very smart for rejecting Warren, instead he chose to work on himself. Even after that he still denied his offer, which portrayed his actual growth really well… Most movies choose the cliche route and bring them back together in the end, even if their relationship is toxic and won’t lead to anything on the long run (they were both cheating, pure selfish love) That’s why I truly liked how Richard turned Mark down, it portrayed that a glow up won’t fix the hurt you’ve caused the other person. Truly remarkable work of the writers and producers! Also towards the end I started rooting for Mark and Henry, but I must be the only one, cause no one has mentioned them until now😂 Though they had great chemistry😏
I'm wondering if Warren's love for Marc is partly based on getting free skiing vacations in Switzerland with Mark's parents. But I do believe that his love for Mark is somehow true anyway.
It looks promising, I just hope for a happy ending, no unnecessary drama, no tragic deaths... we have seen way too many LGBTQ+ movies with depressing endings and although in recent years we have finally seen a change in this trend (God's Own Country, Love Simon, Jongens, They Way he Looks, the series "Heartstopper" which I loved...) there's still way too few series/movies out there with happy endings but a ton with sad ones.
I was so into it at the beginning and then I heard "I have a boyfriend" so now I can't help but feel bad for the boyfriend and I want to hear his story
@@nunyabiznes33 please see below one of many newspaper articles about the Australian Team, off 17 players, 7 of them didn’t want to wear a jersey with LBTQ colors on their shirt because of religious or cultural beliefs.
I love how the Brits actually acknowledges the existence of masculine gay men in their films and television series...In the US, gay men are usually still portrayed as tired old stereotypes or the sidekick to a hetero female. This is refreshing to see. Much respect.
Just happened upon this film on Netflix last night. I wasn’t expecting much but holy cow I loved it. It’s always fun to question if you should be rooting for the protagonists; they’re clearly in love and not happy with their current relationships but have both broken the ‘rules’ set out by their significant others. Made them feel so much more human and relatable. Big fan of the ending too. It was heartbreaking seeing Warren physically cry (for the first time in the film?) and having to face returning to his relationship he doesn’t want and leaving the club when the love of his life is right there. Mark ends the film following the advice of his mum which is so sweet, if the film was longer I would have loved to see how his relationship with his teammates had changed now this has all happened. The resolution of the team is the only bit that felt a little rushed after the beautiful pacing from the rest of the film. All in all, god damn beautiful film and a very much appreciated amount of gay sex. 9/10
Warren is in love with john and will never actually leave him unless john breaks up with him. In the new years party he had a chance to stand up for mark after john rightfully punched him but he did nothing and instead went back and presumably begged john to take him back. Just how mark's mum said it is not about love between mark and warren its about how cheaters never change & how cheating on the love of their life is the thrill they are after. Think of the scene where marks dad brings up jennifer his first love who left him for cheating but he still talks about her. Exactly like that warren will never leave john bcuz he never did even after the multiple chances he had bcuz he respects JOHN unlike how mark was his dirty lil secret he is ashamed of and sees as a toy. He only wants him in dark corners while mark wants to go back home to his bf or life but Warren always chooses John first like not breaking up with him for months + leaving the club for him + taking his side when john punched mark.
i rarely watched gay movies with sad endings, and somehow this is my first time. i couldn’t forget that pain and emptiness. this movie somehow portrayed the brutal truth of gay community where not everyone will find their fairy tale ending. i wish i will find one tho, even tho it’s just a glimpse or just faint light. i wish i will never experience the pain of heartbreak/infidelity and i wish that my first romantic relationship will be the first and last till my afterlife. i just want somebody to love me for me and i love him for him. i wish that everyone’s reading this will find the greatest happiness in your life in any form and hope that you’ll keep surviving for me. stay strong for me and please enjoy the ups and downs of life together with your loved ones hee hee❤. i need all prayers and hopes that i will find a man in the future….. 😊
so many questions not been answered yet.. why warren did not want let go of john if his love towards mark more meaningful? why mark still with richard while he never been around and never give full support with mark's passion in rugby? warren feel so in love i can not move on with this movie😢😢
I'm just going to assume it's either going to have a tragic ending or an open ending (I hate both of these options) I hope I'm wrong in my assumption we need more LGBTQ+ films with happy endings there are very few of them and very many with depressing endings *My favorite films with happy endings are (God's Own Country) & (Hawaii) one is a more intense & fast pase film & the other is a slow burning type of film
All I have to say is wow... We need more movies like this. The end got me. But it was excellent and also an excellent film all around. From the cinematography to the message conveyed throughout the film. The level of authenticity this movie has is extremely realistic. As a gay man myself I have gone through the exact same thing and I felt very connected to the movie in representing the story of a gay man's struggles, hardships, friendship, and infidelity within a gay partnership. I highly recommend this movie! Excellent work from everyone involved in this movie.
the most inspiring and special part is that even mark loved warren too much still he declined to be with warren as warren lost his chance after mark went through so much for him and he was not there when it was the time. That's very difficult in real life which is why we need to get inspire from it and should be strong as he was.
it's on Prime today, rental, for a tenner, rip off. Its can be streamed, free, with Spanish subs. Not impressed. Depressing - gay men who can't be faithfull and need to cheat. But Mark gets it good... so there is that. They won't be getting my tenner.
@@kevinstuart6341 kudos with the profile pic btw... ;o0 was watching YT channel ThePointsGuysUK - abt travel - most the guys are on the team, and have Insta worth stalking... lol
Rugby players in general , straight or gay , are very hot! I was lucky enough to go out on a few dates with some of them a while back, and get to know part of their world.
Amazing movie, so well acted, so well shot, great music ❤ The only negative is the two main characters which the audience were supposed to connect with were cheating on their respective partners... Slightly problematic... 😬 Maybe a sequel focussed on John and Rich, and how they felt and dealt with their long-term boyfriends betrayals?
As gay. Most of the time , I hate gay movies because it’s always tragic or someone die at the end. Since few years , gay movies are really positive ^^ thank you.
@@DiegoTMG listen, the bar is in HELL for gay guy romance media. If the characters are not suffering horrible homophobia and violence, that qualifies as positive 🤷♂
@@babydollface I do understand that we're going from "bad" to "less bad". But still... other shows (like the recent heartstopper) went from "bad" to "amazing"
I just watched this movie had to buy it on Prime. And it was amazing. Both actors had great chemistry, they both did a great job especially Alexander Lincoln, I just fell in love with his acting and his puppy dog adorable face. Anyway, why isn’t anyone talking about the culprit of the movie? I am not talking about Garett, we all knew from get go that he would be the one to expose them. But the real evil of the movie was Henry. Oh god that was absolutely the worst character in this movie. He was selfish, sloppy and expects Mark to babysit him around meanwhile he has a secret crush on him. You know what made me mad so much at the end when he tells mark maybe we can work on being friend again. I was like wtf, if I were mark, I would’ve 🥊 him😡😡😡😡😶🌫️🤬🤬

Right!!! But it became toxic and their friendship can’t last
@@desqua2497 only became toxic because Warren didn't stand up for Mark when his partner found out.
@@antonscheepers388 i meant the best friend henry, not warren

Drag them
So true… n so intouchable for others différents guys…
What do you mean? Both guys look alike?
Just gay behaviors. Don't see anything wrong.. They all date theirs cousin 💀
This movie is unbelievable I just fell in love with it in so many ways. This should be a show like queer as folk. I want to know about all the guys and much more about the game. Gee this NEEDS TO BE A SHOW ❤
Plenty of gay character's lives to explore, though none seem to be as romantic as Mark's and Warren's.
Just finished watching it and bawled my eyes out on just how authentic it is. Not just another fantasy but rather something so real, the actors did amazing.
Where i watch it
@@AsadJaan-xq6lb Netflix, used VPN to stream in UK netflix.
This is one of the best LGBTQ movie out there, loved every minute of it, All actors did a great job with their characters, ending was quite Emotional but totally what mark needed to do,
No way, never. How could you even say that? I wasn't drawn into the story at all, they chose nice actors but no talent for the subject matter. im sorry LOL
Gross
I have a feeling I'm gonna cry watchin this movie!
Right?
😪
Nothing wrong with that. It means you can emotionally engage with a character and have a good understanding of human dynamics. We need more empathetic people in the world.
Yes, I almost cried as well how boring and bad this movie is.
I would just watch this film for these two gorgeous men
I saw this at the Inside Out Festival in Toronto this spring. Wonderful film.
I hope it doesnt advocate cheating 😭😭
Did it end well?
No spoilers!!!
spill the tea...im not going to watch it unless I know the ending!😁
@@p.a.y.e2119 They all live happily ever after.
okay...
I've watched the film several times, because this film is good.
But, the most important thing I can find the meaning of this film. The meaning is that love is never wrong it's just that the time is not right.
Why?
How Mark and Warren fall in love even though they both already have their respective partners.
The points that I can take so that I find the meaning of this film are:
1. Mark is cheating on his boyfriend, because his boyfriend is busy with his personal affairs so he forgets about Mark, he does love Mark but it's just that he doesn't have enough time with Mark.
2. Warren was the worst, he cheated on his boyfriend who was even in the same group as him, he thought that spending one night with Mark wouldn't be a big problem for his relationship with his boyfriend, but it all happened outside his expectation was that he fell in love with Mark.
3. Mark decided not to be with anyone, he ended all his relationship with his boyfriend and Warren, even though he knew he was also in love with Warren, it's just unfair for him if he was with Warren but he had to break up with his boyfriend.
4. At the end of the film, Warren admits that he is in love with Mark, he even asks Mark to be with him, because at that time Warren is going out of town with his boyfriend. But, Mark refused because he knew his relationship with Warren would not be smooth even if they were together.
5. Mark told his mother that he and Warren were just friends with benefits, or just friends. However, his mother knew that Mark was having an affair and his mother made sense of it, because Mark's father had also had an affair with another woman, but his father still chose his mother, but with the story that Mark's mother did not find a way out at all, instead he was angry with the attitude of his father who had an affair from his mother.
These five big points are the points that I think are the essence of this film, so I can conclude that "Love is never wrong, it's just that the time is not right".
I have seen this movie, excallent Mark did excellent work on his acting, once leaves his boy friend of Warren, again want to come his life but Mark said don't need because if they are not giving respect in front of everyone better you have to leave and not expected again to come Mark's life. Wonderful✨😍 👏👏👏👏👏.
I was surprisingly impressed by this one. At first wasn't too keen on yet another film centered around sporting, but I think it homed in on the more relatable quality of the sport. Not the technicalities of the rules or even the competitiveness (wonderfully telegraphed by the fact that the only point at which the sport's "laws" were relevant was at the end), but friendship and comradery amidst drama of romance and such. It was sad, real, frustrating and adorable, pointing out a lot of the flawed toxic thinking of males, even when in a queer-positive space. Not really resolving them in ways that are the healthiest, but in a net positive and mature way you'd at least hope for. Nearly cried at the end. My major sentiment throughout was that it's so sad how people get in their own way by being too afraid to confront their own emotions in a productive logical way until it's too late. But at the same time how beautiful it is to have found a family that you can stick by through drama. Very well done film, great score and excellent cinematography as well. Every single shot was a vibe and that alone made it stand out.
This movie is amazing. Loved the essence. And actually I liked the corners of it , like how mark made the decision, I wanted them to end up together but I liked how it went on the right path- sorry for my bad English
Una de las mejores películas, por no decir la mejor, que he visto. Me he enamorado, ilusionado, reido, entretenido, llorado, etc.etc. los actores geniales, gran interpretación, lamentablemente no tuvo un final esperado por la linda pareja que hacen Mark & Warren. Por favor más películas así, en verdad ya cansa las películas de temática gay con adolescentes. Las edades de los actores en esta película es perfecto, me sentí varias veces identificado con algunas escenas. La recomiendo 100% no se van a arrepentir. Saludos desde Lima, Perú.
Okey.
Dónde la viste por favor?
En que plataforma la viste???
me cagaste el final con el spoiler pero la veo igual. Mirá God's own country la mejor que vi nunca. Hoy me bajo y miro esta.
Ya viste smiley en Netflix?
Reminded me of a mature “Heartstopper,” and I’m here for it.

@@graphiquejack lol
My first thought 😭
Brilliant film. Great story, great acting, loved the music. Perfect pitch!
Please it must have part II!
I’m heartbroken! It was so wonderful, deep, sad, but true!
It's brilliant - watched it at the Vue Leicester Square last night. You don't have to like rugby to enjoy it.
Whoa, looks amazing. Can't wait to see it when it comes to the big screen.
he's cheating on his boyfriend and you think this is an amazing representation? hahaha
@@HumanSagaVault It is a story. That’s the purpose of films- to tell stories and possibly to learn something from what these characters go through. Characters in films do not need to be perfect representations of human beings. People are flawed (including gay people) and that’s what makes a story interesting. Maybe we aren’t all as perfect as you??
@@HumanSagaVault yep, they both are. Hoped for a better movie. But we get horned up gay men facking. I can get that on other platforms. Depressing movie.
*spoilers*
I absolutely loved watching this movie…
Mark was very smart for rejecting Warren, instead he chose to work on himself. Even after that he still denied his offer, which portrayed his actual growth really well… Most movies choose the cliche route and bring them back together in the end, even if their relationship is toxic and won’t lead to anything on the long run (they were both cheating, pure selfish love)
That’s why I truly liked how Richard turned Mark down, it portrayed that a glow up won’t fix the hurt you’ve caused the other person. Truly remarkable work of the writers and producers!
Also towards the end I started rooting for Mark and Henry, but I must be the only one, cause no one has mentioned them until now😂 Though they had great chemistry😏
I'm wondering if Warren's love for Marc is partly based on getting free skiing vacations in Switzerland with Mark's parents. But I do believe that his love for Mark is somehow true anyway.
It looks promising, I just hope for a happy ending, no unnecessary drama, no tragic deaths... we have seen way too many LGBTQ+ movies with depressing endings and although in recent years we have finally seen a change in this trend (God's Own Country, Love Simon, Jongens, They Way he Looks, the series "Heartstopper" which I loved...) there's still way too few series/movies out there with happy endings but a ton with sad ones.
@@dylanwalsh2574 i'm not getting my hopes up, just hoping for a happy ending
So true! I don't need more depressing shit.
No kidding...crossing my fingers!!!! 😶
Life rarely has a happy ending.
@@michaelenglish1992 what? Why??😂😂😂😂
I was so into it at the beginning and then I heard "I have a boyfriend" so now I can't help but feel bad for the boyfriend and I want to hear his story
So watch the movie. 😊

Yeah me too! Decent looking men with regular builds. They are very similar, but def my type.
Alexander is so gorgeous with funny expressions. He's the only reason I watched Emmerdale.
who's alexander the top or bottom just notice there both name alexander 😄
@@jerichonisay3958 Bottom. His character is called Mark.
He is so sexy and as you say a funny guy i think he is fab x

I don't know the team. What happened?
@@nunyabiznes33 please see below one of many newspaper articles about the Australian Team, off 17 players, 7 of them didn’t want to wear a jersey with LBTQ colors on their shirt because of religious or cultural beliefs.
@@robertkinkhorst5697 I'm gay and I think there's nothing wrong with that. If they don't want to wear it, fine.
Looks amazing! Can't wait to see it in Amsterdam 😍
Me too in Buenos Aires (Arg)
I love how the Brits actually acknowledges the existence of masculine gay men in their films and television series...In the US, gay men are usually still portrayed as tired old stereotypes or the sidekick to a hetero female. This is refreshing to see. Much respect.
What a brilliant film. Everything about it was so good. Utterly beautiful.
They got something right about the gay community - boyfriends that look like brothers.
That is called narcissistic dynamical
Absolutely brilliant acting, fantastic
love it. want more like it. sequel would be awesome.
Watched this on Netflix last night .Great film and well acted , one of the best films in a long time .
Link can I see it please tell me

Is this gonna be shown in Ireland???? 💖 Looks so beautiful
I loved this movie. Is real, not the dying or living happly ever after kind of film. Much more of learn from your mistakes and do better
Just happened upon this film on Netflix last night. I wasn’t expecting much but holy cow I loved it.
It’s always fun to question if you should be rooting for the protagonists; they’re clearly in love and not happy with their current relationships but have both broken the ‘rules’ set out by their significant others. Made them feel so much more human and relatable.
Big fan of the ending too. It was heartbreaking seeing Warren physically cry (for the first time in the film?) and having to face returning to his relationship he doesn’t want and leaving the club when the love of his life is right there.
Mark ends the film following the advice of his mum which is so sweet, if the film was longer I would have loved to see how his relationship with his teammates had changed now this has all happened. The resolution of the team is the only bit that felt a little rushed after the beautiful pacing from the rest of the film.
All in all, god damn beautiful film and a very much appreciated amount of gay sex. 9/10
😂🤣😂🤣🥖`;.🤪. Gross
Warren is in love with john and will never actually leave him unless john breaks up with him. In the new years party he had a chance to stand up for mark after john rightfully punched him but he did nothing and instead went back and presumably begged john to take him back. Just how mark's mum said it is not about love between mark and warren its about how cheaters never change & how cheating on the love of their life is the thrill they are after. Think of the scene where marks dad brings up jennifer his first love who left him for cheating but he still talks about her. Exactly like that warren will never leave john bcuz he never did even after the multiple chances he had bcuz he respects JOHN unlike how mark was his dirty lil secret he is ashamed of and sees as a toy. He only wants him in dark corners while mark wants to go back home to his bf or life but Warren always chooses John first like not breaking up with him for months + leaving the club for him + taking his side when john punched mark.
This looks like it's going to be a great hit movie!! Can't wait to see it!!!🤩🤩🤩🤩
Can I watch this movie on Online? Any website?
Looks very promising
i rarely watched gay movies with sad endings, and somehow this is my first time. i couldn’t forget that pain and emptiness. this movie somehow portrayed the brutal truth of gay community where not everyone will find their fairy tale ending. i wish i will find one tho, even tho it’s just a glimpse or just faint light. i wish i will never experience the pain of heartbreak/infidelity and i wish that my first romantic relationship will be the first and last till my afterlife. i just want somebody to love me for me and i love him for him. i wish that everyone’s reading this will find the greatest happiness in your life in any form and hope that you’ll keep surviving for me. stay strong for me and please enjoy the ups and downs of life together with your loved ones hee hee❤. i need all prayers and hopes that i will find a man in the future….. 😊
❤
An excellent film with a sad ending. I wish Mark and Warren could have lived happily ever after.
We want a sequel!
so many questions not been answered yet.. why warren did not want let go of john if his love towards mark more meaningful? why mark still with richard while he never been around and never give full support with mark's passion in rugby? warren feel so in love i can not move on with this movie😢😢
Im in love with both those guys! ❤💜💙💚💛
My first thought "That thumbnail looks like a Silverjow artwork" these boys are alpha
I saw the film last night, very realistic . Wonderful
Where did you watch it?
Please tell me where did you watch it ?
por cualm plataforma la viste ?
@@hermanduven4215 English Please?
Those 2 bearded guys from memes finally have a movie. Congratulations for them!
I'm just going to assume it's either going to have a tragic ending or an open ending (I hate both of these options) I hope I'm wrong in my assumption we need more LGBTQ+ films with happy endings there are very few of them and very many with depressing endings
*My favorite films with happy endings are (God's Own Country) & (Hawaii) one is a more intense & fast pase film & the other is a slow burning type of film
Two great movies but have to add, The Man with the answers, The sex of angles and Connor and Jayden. All happy endings.
@@davejohn4951 thank you for the recommendations I will check them out
I stopped watching sad movies since Brokeback Mountain.
@@davejohn4951 some of those movies arent about gay men so theyre not the same
Free fall..another one
All I have to say is wow... We need more movies like this. The end got me. But it was excellent and also an excellent film all around. From the cinematography to the message conveyed throughout the film. The level of authenticity this movie has is extremely realistic. As a gay man myself I have gone through the exact same thing and I felt very connected to the movie in representing the story of a gay man's struggles, hardships, friendship, and infidelity within a gay partnership.
I highly recommend this movie! Excellent work from everyone involved in this movie.
¿Hay alguna posibilidad de ver esta peli en alguna plataforma en europa? O al menos en España. Tengo muchas ganas de verla.
Al fin un comentario en español

I have literally no idea what they're saying, but I'll definitely see this!
I can't wait to watch it!
the most inspiring and special part is that even mark loved warren too much still he declined to be with warren as warren lost his chance after mark went through so much for him and he was not there when it was the time. That's very difficult in real life which is why we need to get inspire from it and should be strong as he was.
OMG ... I really want to see this.
can't wait to watch the whole movie 😍
it's on Prime today, rental, for a tenner, rip off. Its can be streamed, free, with Spanish subs. Not impressed. Depressing - gay men who can't be faithfull and need to cheat. But Mark gets it good... so there is that. They won't be getting my tenner.

Rugby players in general , straight or gay , are very hot! I was lucky enough to go out on a few dates with some of them a while back, and get to know part of their world.
Amazing movie, so well acted, so well shot, great music ❤ The only negative is the two main characters which the audience were supposed to connect with were cheating on their respective partners... Slightly problematic... 😬
Maybe a sequel focussed on John and Rich, and how they felt and dealt with their long-term boyfriends betrayals?
As gay. Most of the time , I hate gay movies because it’s always tragic or someone die at the end.
Since few years , gay movies are really positive ^^ thank you.
I know right?? I really hope this one has a happy ending!
How is it positive? The story starts with one of the protagonists cheating on his boyfriend...
@@DiegoTMG listen, the bar is in HELL for gay guy romance media. If the characters are not suffering horrible homophobia and violence, that qualifies as positive 🤷♂
@@babydollface I do understand that we're going from "bad" to "less bad". But still... other shows (like the recent heartstopper) went from "bad" to "amazing"
@@DiegoTMG Heartstopper is my favourite thing I've ever watched 👍 I would love any other content like it, but it doesn't really exist right now🤷♂
Looks promising. I’m interested in this now
I just watched this movie had to buy it on Prime. And it was amazing. Both actors had great chemistry, they both did a great job especially Alexander Lincoln, I just fell in love with his acting and his puppy dog adorable face. Anyway, why isn’t anyone talking about the culprit of the movie? I am not talking about Garett, we all knew from get go that he would be the one to expose them. But the real evil of the movie was Henry. Oh god that was absolutely the worst character in this movie. He was selfish, sloppy and expects Mark to babysit him around meanwhile he has a secret crush on him. You know what made me mad so much at the end when he tells mark maybe we can work on being friend again. I was like wtf, if I were mark, I would’ve 🥊 him😡😡😡😡😶🌫️🤬🤬
It's a very good movie.... don't loose the chance to watch it
I would love to watch this!
