Lovely characters, it shows queer films don't need to have a bad ending.
It’s cute but most gay people I know love it a lot more than I do?
One of the few lgbtq+ movies that end happily. Pleasure to watch.
Sort of a TV film, something of a casual watch, but still a nice story.
It’s looks simple and blasé but at its heart this story is deeply beautiful and incredibly well told
This was actually really cute, I was put off by the other minor characters at times tho
it's quite uplifting, and a positive movie. not my cup of tea though, too unrealistic, and it did leave me wanting more answers
gut
Average.....
Feel-good, positive film.

In 1966, Dieter Dengler was shot down over Laos, captured, and, down to 85 pounds, escaped. Barefoot, surviving monsoons, leeches, and machete-wielding villagers, he was rescued. Now, near 60, living on Mt. Tamalpais, Dengler tells his story: a German lad surviving Allied bombings in World War II, postwar poverty, apprenticed to a smith, beaten regularly. At 18, he emigrates and peels potatoes in the U.S. Air Force. He leaves for California and college, then enlistment in the Navy to learn to fly. A quiet man of sorrows tells his story: war, capture, harrowing conditions, escape, and miraculous rescue. Where did he find the strength; how does he now live with his memories?
