Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Most people remember their first crush — if not the person, then it's that initial feeling that lingers, but there's something about a young queer person's first crush that just hits different. It's not just discovering the capacity to really like someone — it's the unearthing of a part of yourself that feels wholly new, wildly exciting, and a little bit scary.

As Griffin, Everett Blunck gives a star-making turn. There's a cautious anxiety in the way he moves that's in direct conflict with his outward-facing persona. This certainly explains the way he expresses himself, but there's also an unbound sense of curiosity that is only unlocked further by this new crush.

It's a plot that could easily veer into scary territory, but Colia handles Griffin's crush and Brad's character with a careful sensibility that eludes any stickiness. Brad is oblivious to Griffin's feelings, but after a few days, the two connect because of their shared interest in art.
