OK I came here due to it being suggested to me and I have read the comments. It is a story of love and loyalty and friendship and commitment. Yes, there is a definite homoerotic subtheme. If you are expecting gay porn go elsewere. If you are a young Gay person fighting inside of yourself, please, do not give up. This story is about love and overcoming such things. If you have been abused, get help. If you are gay and feel no one is there for you, reach out, there are many who will love you.
This is a great movie. It is not centered on sex. It is a very complex tale of two lives in pain which happened to cross. Personally, I became uneasy once I realized the theme. I do not think the coach was a predator, he was overcome by the beauty and apparent odd innocence of Tommy. The resulting love/hate story is so poetic it caught me in it's pathos. Damn it, I cried. Maybe this movie was ahead of its time. Not a Sandusky issue. A human issue. Oscars? Yeah, to both. Re-release it!
Thank you for sharing. What passion and suppressed sexual tension. The kid has to be applauded for letting it go and staying loyal to his trainer. He is Hot though...who wouldnt be attracted to that? Peace! :0)
This movie was fantastic hate say it but I cried when...well you'll have to see it but it was pretty emotional movie really good I can't wait to watch it again
@Gaffhart77 : Although the main characters share the same name (and profession), I don't believe there is any connection between the two films. The plots and the "Tommy Riley" characters are completely different.
I saw the entire movie....it left me in tears. Eddie Jones, who plays the trainer Marty Goldberg, was ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT. He deserved an Oscar for his performance, his acting left me speechless and gave me goosebumps. J.P. Davis, who plays the main character Tommy Riley, was also brilliant, but Eddie Jones steals the show in this movie

I would choose a nice good looking coach instead of a fat old ugly one.
