Slow-paced and thought-provoking, and blurs the lines between sex and violence with increasing and almost unbearable tension.

It was a great read, although I think you can't fully grasp a written play without seeing the play (or in this case the film) too. I really loved Tom's inner monologues, which according to the instructions should be spoken out loud during the conversations. They were really intimate, and we got to know a little bit more about his relationship with his deceased lover.
The ending was changed in the Xavier Dolan-movie, and I loved that ending better, but on a stage it's harder to visualize the Rufus Wainwright-scene.
