Three years before he became a household name in Hollywood with 1997's L.A. Confidential, Russell Crowe starred in this Australian drama, the directorial debuts of Geoff Burton and Kevin Dowling. Crowe plays Jeff Mitchell, a young gay man and the son of widower Harry Mitchell (Jack Thompson).

The plot revolves around the comfortable relationship between widower Harry and his gay son Jeff and their individual searches for the right mate. Harry unconditionally loves his Rugby-playing son, and even takes an active part in Jeff's search for Mr. Right.

When Jeff Mitchell (Russell Crowe) has a hot date in with gardener Greg (John Polson), he also has a problem: his father. "Don't let me interrupt," insists Harry Mitchell (Jack Thompson), when his son and the date begin necking. Moments later, Dad is back with a porn magazine, offering it to the lovebirds "if you need something to get started." Then he's back again with a question: "Sorry, I forgot to ask. How do you take your tea in the morning?" At one point Harry can be seen with his arm around Jeff's date, making raunchy double-entendres and having a whale of a time.

Thompson, a broadly assertive actor, labors hard to eke out the touching tone of the film's final moments. Together, he and the subtler, more magnetic Crowe succeed in dramatizing some of the wishful insights that shape David Stevens' writing.
