I didnt see the movie yet and wont read your entire post because I dont want a spoiler, but I say thank you to Ang for putting this together. He didnt have to do a story about us for us.
As gay people we get shit on and kicked in the stomach all day long by people who "Dont approve of homosexuality", so I am ALL FOR anyone who wants to show gay people in a positive light.
Maybe when you live in LA or NYC or SF and are totally surrounded and immersed by gay life, then you can be picky about a gay movie not being totally to your liking.
But if it can make some people who dont live in a major city and arent exposed to gay people open up their minds to the idea that 2 men are genuinely in love and they have to live a lie to try to fit in, then it might make people see that were human too, and not the 18 year old anonymous barebacking partying bathhouse hopping meth addicts the news portrays us as so often.
15 years ago you never say gay people on tv. It was never even mentioned. So stuff like this is very good for us.
Some people will see that movie and say that its sad those 2 cowboys had to lie and get married to women when they didnt want to. They should have just stayed together.
Isnt that great?!
People like Ang are doing us a big favor.
