Nick? That's a bummer.😁

Mary Griffith (Sigourney Weaver) is an incredibly devout Christian who raises her kids strictly following the conservative teachings of the Presbyterian Church.

But things take a turn when her son Bobby confides in his older brother that he thinks he might be gay. Once Mary finds out, the whole family dynamic shifts completely.

While Bobby's dad and the rest of the relatives slowly start to accept who he is, Mary holds onto the belief that God can "fix" his behavior. She pushes him to pray harder and get more involved in church activities, hoping to steer him back onto what she calls the "right path." Desperate for his mom's approval, Bobby goes along with it, but it honestly just leaves him feeling more isolated and depressed than ever.

Feeling guilty for the pain he's causing his mother, he eventually moves out, clinging to the hope that she’ll one day accept him for who he truly is. Between the crushing weight of not being the "perfect" son and his deepening depression, he ends up taking his own life. Dealing with this tragedy, Mary starts questioning everything she thought she knew, especially after the local pastor can't give her any real answers about losing her boy. After a long, heavy emotional journey, Mary reaches out to the gay community and finds support in the most unexpected places.

I know the movie came out back in 2009, but I just stumbled upon it yesterday. Honestly, it's a shame I didn't know about it for two years.🙈

What did you guys think after watching this? Did it change your perspective on anything regarding the gay community?

The movie deals with homosexuality, and I just wanted to point out that for these people, it isn't just about sex. They have so much depth and emotion—stuff that a lot of people aren't capable of feeling or simply refuse to see.

I highly recommend giving this one a watch. 🙂

Poor mods, seriously. It feels like everyone has something to complain about these days.😁

Wait, what’s the deal with this thread and this PDF file? 🙂

But hey, whatever. My absolute favorite is =>🥳
