    very adequate portrait of gay countrymen

    Pit Stop is a gay love story situated in a little town in the state of Texas, USA. Yes, also in little places gay people do live. Not everybody moves to the Big Apple after their coming out. Some like the quietness of small town life or stay there for other reasons. I know many gays fear the loneliness of the countryside, but actually, destiny decides if you find love, no matter where you are. I liked this 'little' independent movie a lot. The men are beautiful and sensitive and they make sense. It's a dramatic movie, but not too. These men have pets, like a cat or dog, it all looked very real and sincere. Even the cat was so relaxed, like it actually lived there. I think this is a very adequate portrait of gay countrymen.

    A Slow Burn Portrait That Works

    This film throws traditional screenplay structure out the window which at first makes one wait for major plot developments, but in the process it draws you into the lives of many different characters who are just trying to get by in their unsatisfying small town lives.

    That in itself becomes compelling in its own compassionate, poetic way. The performances are all outstanding and one really feels for each of the leading and supporting characters as their stories unfold.

    There's a sad kindness in the way the stories unfold, and the film becomes a broad portrait of gay life in small town Texas. If you take the film on its own terms, it blossoms in a way that you seldom see in most movies, gay or otherwise.

    honest perspective

    I suppose, the perspective about homosexual relations represents the main virtue of this real interesting film. It is not a demonstration, a manifesto, a melodrama or the heartbreaking self definition of gay life in terrible society.

    It is easy to see it as a gallery of portraits of ordinary people and their lives, options, relations. It is a film about romance and family and dilemmas. But its good point is the honesty of vision of every day realities .

    Maybe not impressive, obvious not memorable. But in its way, courageous. In short, in Texas, few men and their lives , stories and their romances . And , sure, their answers to life .

    A beautiful movie about mismatches and mending broken hearts

    You follow th life of two broken hearted men, Gabe and Ernesto, who live in the same town, go to the same places and work 100 ft away without even knowing each other.

    It may seem a little still at the beginning and by the trailer you might expect it to progress into a much more sexualized interaction between characters, but it turns out to be a nice romantic drama, which was a nice surprise.

    It's not one of those "instant love" movies in which two people meet, fall madly in love and ride in a white horse to the horizon, it's a bit deeper than that, showing you about how you can "move on" how and when you least expect it.

    I recommend it.
