splashpont's rating
What might appear to be a low rating is really only understood when one identifies this flick as an art film.
As a gay flick, it is particularly stark. It is not a romcom, though it's about the philosophical four loves known to humanity (cf., C. S. Lewis). There's no content to warrant an X-rating, though the cast is hot. (You'll see!) There's little cussing, though the dialogue is filled with emotion.
Want a quiet night "in a Brooklyn brownstone?" Sit back and enjoy "A Stormy Night."

Which of these scenes were not included in Animal House, a 1970s flick about post-50s, early 1960s collegiate life?
Freshmen expectations, beer, fake IDs, beer, partying, beer, blood, beer, cafeteria drama, beer, scoring, beer, fraternity antics, beer, confusion, beer, change in academic plans for lust, beer, etc.
With many "out" people and groups on campus today, the coming out fears expressed relate to a few (while in the time period of Animal House, most were mocked, shunned, or worse).
Which begs the question: who is the intended audience of this series?
I'm not really sure. And what is its redeeming value? Haven't discovered it yet, but I'm only midway through episode 4.

The cast is attractive and the romcom storyline standard. The city vs country lifestyles are a bit insulting (to city folk), but that's an old school standard for this otherwise wholesome genre.
The use of scripture "quotations" is odd when put on the lips of someone unchurched, but that's a problem with the genre in general since only certain people speak this way. Again, that's okay--but put on the lips of the wrong character.
You may think that these opinions would require a lower rating. But, Anen, amen, I say unto you: I like critical thinking whilst watching a fun romcom, with its classic propaganda. Oh, and did I mention, the cast is attractive!?!
