Subtitles Needed
After reading all the wonderful reviews written (and not being able to find this moview in the local video store)I decided to purchase Beautiful Thing. I was thrilled to get it within a few days of placing the order. However, I was very dissapointd in the film. The main reason:the movie offers no subtitles. Subtitles make a BIG difference when a dialect is heavy. I could only understand about one quarter of what the characters were saying, and that I had to really concentrate on). So for me, this spoiled the movie. Other than that, Beautiful Thing looks like it could be a good movie. On the positive, I admired the actors looking normal instead of having a Hollywood polish.
