Who wouldn’t like Scot as a son? I would have adopted him without thinking. Well, Sam and Eric are a bit different. Eric is still in the closet, five years after he was injured in a hockey match. Sam fixed his legal stuff and his heart as well. They have come to some living together of a sort and then comes Scot.
Scot is just adorable. He wears pink, he sings Christmas carols all day long and he wants to kiss the first boy on the street that he meets. Scot challenges everything in them and for the better.
I have hated Eric at the beginning, like I dislike all the men in the closet. And it seems that every coming-out is a magic of its own and sometimes one needs a young fairy boy to make another fairy boy live in a grown-up man.
It is a true gay comedy with a Christmas ending to it. It takes place in Toronto. The original book takes place in Boston and I remember the feeling that I have gotten in the book. Eric’s inner struggles were much more present and Scot was not as adorable. All the better to skip the book and watch the movie!
