7/10
Reminds me of Show Me Love and All Over Me.

This was one of my favorite movies and it really reminded me of All Over Me, Show Me Love and even Boys Don't Cry. Frankie is obviously butch, she dresses butch has no makeup, but is willing to swing over to being heterosexual with Heath. All of the previous movies I mentioned are so close to this film, that it was nothing "new" just done before. Frankie and Nichola are so close, that Josee interrupts their tight friendship. I think Frankie is in love with Josee, but finds out Josee is very fickle and would do anything with anyone for fun, so Frankie out of loneliness chooses Heath and even considers putting on a dress, which is extremely difficult for her, so difficult that the night Heath is making dinner for her, she wanders off to the bar looking for Josee again. One of the more interesting youth oriented films out there.
