So often I "stumble" upon a movie that was produced some years ago. That is true for "Akron". The roles of "Benny" and "Christopher were well played by Matthew Frias and Edmund Donovan, respectively.
As lovers, they are superbly passionate in their love for each other. In my now aging life I have been fortunate to know and experience such love and passion. Thus, I relate.
That Benny and Christopher were destined to meet and become a couple is well plotted. Who would know that Christopher's mother had accidentally hit and killed Benny's older brother Davey years earlier in a shopping parking lot? What is unclear is whether Davey was hit by the car as the result of a distraction; or, because Davey bolted out in front of the car.
Upon Christopher's discovery that he is dating the brother of Davey, killed by accident by Christopher's mother, matters become very challenging. That they are able to reconcile in the end is refreshing; and, spiritually reassuring. Benny and Christopher then are assured to move along and strengthen their relationship as gay partners/lovers.
