The pacing shifts as memories flood in, almost like a series of vignettes that highlight his struggles with being queer and bullied. The performances feel raw, especially as Ace grapples with the revelation about his Grandpa Beau, which adds layers to his character. The film’s use of practical effects, especially during musical sequences, gives it a unique texture that stands apart from traditional genre entries.
