I'm Nino. Who are you?
I'm Nino. You know, the perfect husband, the perfect father, the perfect camping buddy. Okay, not perfect...Nino is much better looking! But, as a gay/homosexual/man with same-sex attractions (whatever you want to call me), I made my choice to marry my wife (who knew this about me before we wed) and we have four beautiful children. My wife is my best friend and lover, and I do not regret the life I have chosen. As I watched the movie, I was hoping that Nino would leave that girl at the altar and go for Angelo. That was partially motivated by my impression of the girl. I didn't like her and I'd be unhappy married to her. But, Nino chose the existance that he did, and if he's happy, then I'm happy, even though that wasn't my initial perspective at the end of the movie. He chose to go with the flow of life and society rather than go against it. At first I hated the ending, but now I understand it and respect it. Isn't the mantra, "Celebrate Diversity"? Well, I'm celebrating Nino's choice, Angelo's choice, and mine. Anyway, just my thoughts. I don't exactly fit the mold, and many have been upset with me because I wasn't "true to myself," but I was and am. So is Nino. After thinking about it, I do like this movie. I hope Nino is as happy with his choices as I am with mine. I hope you are happy with the choices you have made.
