Sadly, not the story of a Truman Capote stalker, or even better, the stalker of a Truman Capote impersonator, “Tru Love” is instead writer-director Stuart Wade’s family-friendly tale for teens about sexual sensitivity in the form of a pansexual rom-com set in a conservative Southern California high school. Tru (Najarra Johnson) finds her world upended when her two moms leave San Francisco for the homophobic hinterland. As cuddly didacticism goes, it’s pretty sweet, and apparently is intended as much as teaching tool as entertainment. Not bad at all. 104m. (Ray Pride)
