REVIEW: ‘I AM MICHAEL’ PORTRAYS A GAY ACTIVIST SEEKG TO BE STRAIGHT

Rewd the story a and we fd Michael livg happily San Francis wh his partner Bent (Zachary Quto) as he works as the Managg Edor of XY Magaze, a popular gay liftyle publitn. Glatze enuraged gay muni to intify wh their sexualy, but after a medil sre revolvg around his potential heart ndn, Glatze begs his journey explorg Christiany and abandong his former beliefs and liftyle. As a gay Christian I feel sorry for is nstantly changg and do not know has always been tryg to get people to listen to him.

He was an edor, he wrote a blog often, he would make speech to young gay now he is a pastor. He is starved for any gay person stgglg wh fah and beg would never put those thoughts to your head like that, unls that is who you were born this are way way too many gay and trans people who have taken their own liv bee of their yourself, treat others what mak you life your. So many gay people have been wrongfully led to believe that god hat them and by hypocr!

All the hate people endured over one vague le the gay people live typil liv. They don't live the urban mastream of partyg and are people led to believe they mt choose between beg a relig monk and a wild so lled gay liftyle? As an atheist and gay man, I was trigued to learn about this story (and kd of embarrassed to have known nothg about him already) performanc, pecially Jam Fran's, were excellent.

‘I AM MICHAEL’ REVIEW: JAM FRAN PLAYS ‘EX-GAY’ PROVOTIVE BPIC

Beg a gay man and an atheist I still fundamentally, profoundly disagree wh Glatze's this movie helped me unrstand him better. I remember Michael and his boyiend ( real life named "Benji") and their polyamro relatnship wh a third young gay man ("Stt" real life). In fact, I saw them all speak NYC at a bookstore when they were promotg "Jim Bold" (a documentary that spotlighted a young gay man's suici juxtaposed wh footage of Michael and pany tourg the USA and speakg wh gay teens ral/nservative areas).

They were all "Rah-rah-rah GAY and Michael was pecially hont about his own homophobia growg up. Well, after awhile they fell off the radar and I never knew what happened to I googled "Young Gay Ameri" and found that Michael had gone str8.

While Fran is a brilliant actor, his ongog public gay-bag and exploatn of the gay muny have rced him to a mere stagram unrwear mol. And Fran did the film to ntue danglg himself ont of gay men. It would have been easy for Kelly to direct a feature which picted Glatze as a self-hatg gay man who hurls himself back the closet, but the tth may be more plited (some have suggted Glatze may not have been gay the first place), and the film attempts to prent the facts of his life at the time whout makg judgments.

MIKE IS GAY

The movie may be unfortable viewg for some (Gay and Straight) but s a movie that is worthy s own right. An apparent anti gay film but not really on a eper level.

JAGS' MAXEN IS FIRST MALE AMERIN PRO SPORTS ACH TO E OUT AS GAY

This film tells the story of a proment gay activist who found God, and subsequently he cis to openly renounce the gay liftyle, and go to bible school. Watchg a film wh such a ntent a gay and lbian film ftival surely mak viewers gasp disbelief!

The film then ntu the velopment of Jam' character, om beg very embracg the gay liftyle to renouncg . Many anti gay ments are voiced, and more gasps of exasperatn were ma. Three are clu as to whether Jam'character really got nverted or not, which is the pro gay unrtone of the story.

So on a eper level, the story is really about exposg the farce of the ex-gay phenomenon, rather than beg anti gay. Anti gay movie, offensive, but still borg. I don't blame Zachary Quto, who is gay real life, for playg this film.

Image a young guy who jt disvers he's gay, watchg this movie. I'm gay myself and I e om a very tholic fay.

Let me tell you this, the church has been tryg to make me hate myself for beg gay for years and they e the story of Michael Glatze as jtifitn for their hate and hypocrisy. So they not only ma an anti gay movie, they also paid the person rponsible for so many broken liv. While I unrstand the importance of the msag this film ntas - 's ok to be gay, 's ok to be Christian, 's ok to be a gay Christian and 's ok to be a gay guy who fds God and be straight, I have so many issu wh , that will be difficult to review the film rather than jt rant about relign.

I adm, I am imprsed wh his directn and wh the too often gay cema and movi general really, suffer om weak stori and cmblg screenplays.

This is not the se here at subject is Michael Glatze, magaze edor and gay rights advote who fds his epiphany relign. He renounc his "liftyle" and cis he is simply a straight guy wh a "homosexual problem. Strange to thk that the director of the film himself is gay.

Jam Fran, perhaps the kg of the hipster closet s, llus wh Zachary Quto, an out gay in, to further blur the l between heterosexual and homosexual inti. Let's nfe the kids some marriage as the fol pot of all gay activism the past two s was bad enough.
