Crowe plays Jeff Mitchell, a young gay man and the son of widower Harry Mitchell (Jack Thompson). The two live together while they both search for a special someone with whom to spend their lives.

Body: just before moving to Australia for 2 years. It's a sweet film, the dad's sweet, Russell's sweet, both of them looking for love is sweet. Thought it was interesting to chronicle homosexuality and age together as being "outside" mainstream.
