The breakdown:  After a movie star names one of his high school teachers as gay, everyone in town questions him if he is, even though he's supposed to marry his girlfriend of 3 years just a few days away.

I knew this might not be too funny, but I finished it anyway.
I was right.  I didn't laugh but one time, and the movie isn't very good.

Kevin Kline plays this English teacher at a small town high school.  One of his former students went to Hollywood and became a big time actor.  So when he wins the Oscar for his portrayal of a gay soldier he gives a memorable speech.  Especially the part about how his old high school teacher meant a lot to him, and he was gay.
Kline is supposed to get married to a woman he's been dating for 3 years just a few days after the Oscars, so things get a bit tense between them and she's confused.
Everyone in town was watching the Oscars, so word travels fast and the teacher denies it. 
Then a few days later, he starts to question why did his former student believe that about him and he starts to search within himself for the true answers.

I know the movie was trying to have a positive message to be yourself, no matter what that means, but it just wasn't funny, and is forgettable.

Skip it.
2 out of 5 for good acting and I love Frank Oz, but he didn't do a super job with this one.
