this movie left me crying. It bares a lot of similarities with my life. I wrote the letter to my father when I was 21. I imagine a lot of people with an extreme type A, workaholic dad should be able to identify with the story here... and then some. it's about feelings. it's about who you are. it's about a father and a child. it's about not being afraid to try different things. it's about being true to yourself, even if you're a late bloomer. The Ed Norton bit, makes me wonder about the relations Ed had with his father. I have a hunch he can also identify with what's being told here. after all he's the producer of the movie.

I believe we all have an inner child inside. It is shaped by childhood wounds, and what helps us continue to grow in life. This story is beautiful. The vulnerability David expresses brings him healing. I gave this a 9 for the courage it took to show his struggle and share it with the world. I also wonder about Edward Norton's paternal experiences. It left me crying, too. Thanks, Ed Norton!!!

I gave this 10 because for those who need this kind of healing it means so much. To all those brave enough to take part I applaud.

I thought that this documentary was very well done. I especially liked near the beginning when the doctor tells the man (main actor) what his testosterone levels were. I think this all helps to shed a little bit more light on what it means to be masculine in regards to biology, neurology, nature and nurture. Would love to see how they are all doing today. Definitely a must see for everyone. I think all of us know "this" kind of man. He is not a man's man but he is a man in his own right. People are not cookie cut versions of each other and expecting them to be is a real shame and a real disservice to personal identity. Not all men are rough and gruff etc and that is fine. Was nice to see how well he was received by his peers and family regardless of his "manliness".
