The Half of It

[Flopper]

Woke Alert, Conservatives beware this is not your kind of movie.

However, for the rest of us, this is a well done movie which you may enjoy if you like the subject matter. This is the story of a Chinese American Girl growing up in a small northwestern town. Alice Woo is a shy, introverted student who helps the school jock woo a girl whom, secretly, they both want. It is a tender story that will bring a smile to face. Lee Lewis who plays the lead is very good. The movie is available on Netflix. Sweet Tomatoes gave it a 97% rating.

Alice Wu was the director and writer.

I read the reviews. Not interested. Disgusting rip off of Cyrano. Why can't queers just stop trying to be like heteros?

I am as conservative as they come, and I could care less if there is a lesbian character.
Having said that... sounds like a dippy teen romance movie... bleh.
Once again someone wants to paint conservatives into some "ism" corner.
When they can't tell the vast majority of us don't have a problem with things - we just don't carry a fake torch for them and don't want it shoved in our faces.

Another lame Hallmark soap opera with a lesbian twist. Who wouldn't love it?
