Heroic, funny and romantic, PARTING GLANCES is a triumph for everyone who has ever been in love, straight or gay. PARTING GLANCES, a pioneering film of gay cinema, is about the loyalties of friendship and the vicissitudes of romantic love. It's about the relationship between gays and straights. And it's about how we all try to do our jobs, be there for our friends and keep a love affair going, all at the same time.
