Moving but not Sentimental
PostedDecember 7, 2008

from Englewood, New Jersey
This movie drove me to tears at the end thinking of some of my own family members who are probably gay but still closeted. The acting is wonderful right down the line, especially Sean Penn, Josh Brolin and Emile Hirsch. The movie doesn't pull any punches about the sexual profligacy of gay men who turn out to be unintended heroes. Clearly the gay rights fight is an on-going one, with the echoes of the Proposition 6 fight, a centerpiece in the movie, resonating right now with the failure of Proposition 8 in California.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
