This film starts out troubling the audience by the slight possible relationship between R and J. But then we see that their friendship helped both remove themselves from their respective self-prisons. J is trapped in her mothers world where she feels she has to be the rebel. R is stuck in his over protective, safe shell and can't seem to break free. Together they find companionship and learn most of life's most challenging secrets together. This movie was touching in the very sense that it asks the audience to have an open mind about the films main idea but it is equally beautiful and bittersweet. In the end, the theme of breaking free and being yourself, and loving with your whole entire heart becomes truly apparent.
