If it isn't exactly a happy ending, it's at least an acknowledgment that her character will develop long after the credits roll. Sometimes that's the best we can hope for.

XXY fills a void in cinematic subject matter, and does so with poignancy that leaves viewers thinking long after the credits roll.
