I love the title. And I love the English version even more: The Blossoming of Maximo Oliveros. This movie has everything going for it: a talented cast, great cinematography and direction, and most importantly, a heartfelt, poignant story of a young boy. Or girl.
I particularly liked how Maximo’s family was supportive of his choice of gender. I always say that the support one needs always comes from the family. With that, the person can gather the strength he needs to face the whole world.
eating-out, on the other hand, is really about homosexuals.
The difference? hmmm.. sa maximo oliveros, parang hindi "required" yung part na naging homosexual sya. Parang, the story can still go on even if Maximo is straight. On the other hand, sa eating out, yun talaga yung story. About homosexuals talaga. Yung kung pano yung relationships, mga ganun.
In both films, I particularly liked how their (maximo and the straight guy in eating out) family was supportive of his choice of gender. I always say that the support one needs always comes from the family. With that, the person can gather the strength he needs to face the whole world.
