... the scene where Winchell (Troy Garity)is murdered, how bad is it? I'm sensitive acts of violence and cruelty, and I've seen it so often in gay themed dramas that I was actually on pins and needles through out all of Kissing Jessica Stein, convinced that any moment a skin-head was going drop out of nowhere and kill one of them. My interest in seeing this movie is the love story and to see Lee Pace as woman. I don't particularly want to watch someone beaten to death or sexually tortured for eight gruelling minutes just because the director felt the need to show how awful violence is. I know how awful violence is. If this is Boy's Don't Cry 2, i'm out.

I watched the movie yesterday and the scene where Barry is murdered isn't all that graphic. You see the killer swing the bat a lot of times, but you only see him get hit once or twice. There is a lot of blood splattered on the murderer, bat, and the walls though. They show Barry's dead bloody body, but it's only as graphic as what you would see on CSI.

I loved this movie and I hope you decide to rent it, you won't be disappointed!

The meaning of “nothing” was “I never told you that I inadvertently killed your father."

Thanks guys. Like Myrl I'm really sensitive to violence and can't stand to watch it, so I appreciate knowing ahead of time when/how much not to look.
