Shame No More

About This Movie

Shame No More is a quirky gem that captures that 1950's educational film vibe. It's about Johnny, a high school boy grappling with his identity as a closeted-heterosexual. The tone is a mix of awkward humor and earnest reflection. It plays with the era's style, employing some practical effects that feel surprisingly authentic for a comedy. The pacing is a bit uneven, but it's this charm that gives it its unique flavor. Performances are surprisingly earnest, with Johnny's internal conflict portrayed in an almost nostalgic manner. It's distinct for how it tackles themes of societal expectation and personal truth through a lens that's both comedic and oddly sincere.
