Truth More Devastating than Fiction

Aloha Elisa,
I can't help thinking of the play 'Bent' which remains one of the most haunting I have ever seen. I was fortunate to be in the front row when it played at the 42nd Street Theater on Broadway more than 20 years ago now. The lead actors were Richard Gere and David Dukes and I was overcome with the knoweldge that the persecution of gay men in Germany was was so prevalent. As it was in Britain too. Look at Oscar Wilde. I would be interested in seeing this dicumentary. Thank you for shining a light on the not so pretty side of gay love.
A.J.
