Summary: SENSITIVE FILM DEALING WITH ACCEPTANCE
Review: This is a charming and sensitive film that teaches acceptance andempathy. It's a real shame that the reviewer below called it"disgusting" and "gross". I assume it is the gay content that makes that reviewer so "disgusted". . . I merely want to give this charming film the credit it is due, and to stop the insults that the other reviewer has thrown indiscriminately out.

Summary: Trever is top-notch!
Review: This movie is amazing, among the best I've ever seen. If you have ever felt awkward as a teenager, or just not fit in, you will understand this movie. If you were or are a gay teenager and had an obsession with a diva (Bette, Diana, Barbra, etc) then you will find this movie to be very realistic. It's funny, heart-breaking and in the end heart-warming. This is a must see!

Summary: Enjoyable and entertaining
Review: This was an enjoyable short film.The acting was very good and the story was well told. It's an up-lifting story that will make you smile and feel great. It's sweet and gives you a story that many will relate to about being or feeling out of place and looking for acceptance. It is fairly short, about 16 minutes of actual movie with an additional 5 minutes of introduction. I recommend this as a solid addition to your video collection because it's unusual and done very well. It is clean enough for mixed crowds of all ages. A good tool for enlightening narrow minds.

Summary: Trevor
Review: This was truly a sweet movie. I wish that I would have had access to this movie when I was 13 and feeling that I was the only gay kid in the world. I highly recommend this movie to anyone, especially if you have kids that are struggling with these issues.

Summary: A touching, humorous tale of self-discovery
Review: TREVOR tells the story of a fourteen-year-old gay boy's voyage of self-acceptance. The film's humor owes a great deal to HAROLD AND MAUDE: several of the film's funniest scenes are paraphrases of Harold's staged death scenes in the earlier film. The humor aside, this is a very tender and humane film. Trevor (wonderfully played by Barsky) is a sensitive young man who is being raised by parents who might just as well be perfect strangers - a state common among gay kids. That Trevor is gay seems obvious to everyone but Mom and Dad - the kid adores Diana Ross and Broadway show tunes, for gosh sakes! Trevor has to endure the rejection of the object of his first crush as well as the rest of his schoolmates. But Trevor is nothing if not resilient and it is his strength of character that gives the film it's spirit.
