This announcement sends shockwav through the fay, and the tradnally md relativ are not thrilled about havg a gay son and a non-Jewish son--law.

OY VEY! MY SON IS GAY! (2009)STREAM AND WATCH ONLE

Every time the film cut away om the gay uple, I wanted to shift back to them.

WATCH OY VEY! MY SON IS GAY!!

I thought the guys pulled off the young gay uple love, pecially wh one of them still the closet. Some reviewers mented that JLY seemed unfortable playg a gay character.

OY VEY! MY SON IS GAY! BY VCENT PASTORE

The story unfolds the only way uld, wh a Jewish Rodriguez is a geat actor other parts, but, my only plat, which will not enar me to some, is WHY do they have to put 1 straighty actg gay guy wh 1 semi to mostly flamboyant gay guy that has to throw temper tantms to get their way. Now, I do know that many Jewish gay guys like hispanics, but surely there were other hispanic actors to choose om.

It's hard enough to troduce your gay boyiend to your mother, but 's harr when the guy is on I cid that the boyiend was actually someone like maybe Charlie David, I enjoyed the movie. The parents actg is good but the ma gay uple seem oddly unaffectnate. I've watched a load of heavy gay movi the past week, so I settled to this film feelg that somethg light would be a nice change.

Have a scene a gay bar where no one n dance. Have a scene the bathroom of the gay bar volvg a drag queen.
