“Giant Ltle On” featur strong performanc, particularly om Kyle MacLachlan as Franky’s openly gay father. But when the plot fixat on suburban angst, Behrman risks stalens wh well-worn trop like the closeted jock or the homophobic school film’s savg grace turns out to be the range of experienc that Franky and Ballas are allowed to explore. As they provoke each other, they also rry out arnt relatnships wh girls, and they each have iends and fay members who are gay or who experiment wh genr.

Where many g-of-age films build their stori around the disvery of a fixed selfhood, “Giant Ltle On” succeeds when choos to treat youthful inty as open to shift wh accumulated R for libido teenagers, dg e and homophobic slurs. Would homophobia would be a thg of the past? – homophobia is still holdg steady.
