The same hand behind both of them: Andrew Haigh

Lgbt and gay theme, at the center of both

Contemplative where it counts, romantic underneath

Both built around lgbt

One-night stand sits at the heart of each

Both trade on tenderness more than on being drama

Romance built on stillness, twice over

Romantic drama in both cases

Tender romance, and it commits to that
The difference: Critics were much harder on this one

Drama with a pulse of stillness, in both cases

Romantic romance in both cases

Both sit in the same tender register
