Review of Torch Song Trilogy (1988) by Neil O — 29 Jun 2008

This adaption of Fiersteins Broadway smash is a classic heartwarming film and surely candiate for the title 'best gay film of all time'. Excellent dialog, engaging personalities and superb acting, this touching, heartwarming film this movie shows how each of us needs to have connections with others that are supportive and loving, regardless of sexual orientation, age, gender, or sex.

Anne Bancroft is very strong in the role of the mother and Matthew Broderick went against the tide of fear shared by most Hollywood actors at the time about playing gay characters. Not to be missed.
