Our unofficial Pride month continues with Danforth's lengthy, sprawling story of queers in Montana, which gets abbreviated in Akhavan's film, but we're ok with it? 

It's a good conversation about  growing up gay in a small town (vs big city), why Coley's betrayal stings in more ways than one and whether Chloë Grace Moretz deserves blame for being a bit of a bland protagonist (we prefer Forrest Goodluck's Adam and Sasha Lane's Jane Fonda). 

Plus: why Jennifer Ehle is the perfect "Disney villain" antagonist and a CW for indigenous listeners after the recent trauma that occurred in Kamloops.
