The Sum Of Us (1994)
An Australian movie adapted from an Australian play, this stars two of our great male actors - Jack Thompson and Russell Crowe. (Don't even talk to me about Mel Gibson. Can't act, can only punch, kick scream or run. Fascinating talent there.)
Featuring a narrative, where the father, Thompson, periodically talks to the audience, this movie deal's with Crowe's search for Mr Right. He still lives with his father, but unlike what you might expect to see in a very "ocker" environment, Thompson feels nothing but love and acceptance for his son and can't understand when others don't feel the same way.
This is one of those movies that doesn't have a picture-perfect ending. There are triumphs, but mixed in with those triumphs are moments of great despair. The movie follows a langrously meandering path that wraps the watcher up in the story. The accompanying sound-track is a great expose of Australian music at its best.
Overall, a very good movie that endures the test of time.
