Summary: Secret Garden.
Review: Watching The Hanging Garden, my brother brought it to my attention that the protagonist in his teenage years looked peculiarly similar to a teacher that we both had. He worked (still does) in the basement level of our school building. ... The same, I feel, can be said of the protagonist, Sweet William. The story surrounds the utter isolation of William from his family and friends. Unhappy, confused, haunted by his adolescence, trying to kill all links to his family, he is always at an emotional distance from others. This isn't simply a film about homosexuality, but one that addresses the most fundamental issues of how overwhelming our problems can become. Those problems can force us into a world of our own until others come chasing after us, or we after them; in this respect, the distinction in 'Garden' is never made clear of who pursues whom, and in the surrealistic atmosphere of the film, the interchange of pain between William and others is at once seamless and profound.
