另一个感叹的是，1985年，heavily repudican的america，好像到今天还没怎么变过。adrian说他朋友去世了，爸爸妈妈都不想接纳他的时候，想到conversation with friends （写于最近）里写，google “how do i tell my parents...” 最先出来的搜索提示是 “I’m gay”.
很感谢在这个时间看到这部电影，之前之后可能都不会对他写给弟弟的那封信那么有感触。“you’re gonna have some tough days. Days where you’ll feel like everything sucks. ... days where you’re gonna feel like you just don’t belong. ...and i want you to know, you’re not the only one that feels the way you do. There’s a whole world out there for someone like you. I promise you you’re not as different as you think you’re. And mom and dad, they might not get it. A lot of friends might not get it either. ... and i know that you’re gonna learn to be happy with who you are. And you may need to be in another place to be happy. And you know what? That’s ok. ... and in another time, at another place, you’re gonna meet the right people, people who are just like you. ...so hang in there Andrew. Things tend to get a little darker before they get brighter.”
