Sure, it's a remake, but it's done with great thought and care. I didnt' find it homophobic in the least, but rather touching how the mother accepts the difficult situation she's presented with, with love and care. Tilda Swinton (or is it Eric Stoltz in drag?) is amazing, truly a remarkable actress. She's almost transluscent, but strong at the core. The kid is great too. This movie is made by it's performances, and they are stellar. Definitely worth seeing.
