Real story was not about aids at all.


It was about a wrongful termination. True. About a guy whose lawyer brother goes missing replaced by an imposter. Knew he wasnt his brother because he kissed his cheek like a Judas. Joan Jett wrote the song.

Its the truth I wrote the script.
The people associated know it.

It's about wrongful termination, yeah, and about justice, human rights, social justice, and dignity. For a film made 8 years after Rock Hudson's death, it's great. Why does this film get so much hate these days? Why did it get hate when it first came out? I honestly don't get it.

Human rights? How about the female who wrote the original screenplay about a wrongful termination that had nothing to do with a GAY Man!!!!!!!

This woman was harassed for years by gay folks!!!!


Years.

They are still harassing her.

Her parents were killed because her mother would not turn over a building in 1969 to a group if gay folks. It became a cause celeb a gay revolution and she became an orphan.

Nice sentiments you all have for gay man.

You are truly delusional and CRAZY.

You are condescending and wrong.

A law suit is now pending against everyone involved with this movie.

reply

Get your *beep* together. This film is based on the true story of Geoffrey Bowers, a lawyer in the 80s who was gay and had AIDS, who sued his firm for wrongful termination and won.
