‘BOY ERASED’ FILM REVIEW: NILE KIDMAN, RSELL CROWE SHE GAY CONVERSN THERAPY DRAMA

The son of an Arkansas preacher go to gay nversn therapy, first willgly, then reluctantly. This is very much an advocy film agast gay nversn, and has the star power to get to a general dience. As a parent of a gay man, I believe that this is a mt-see film for all parents.

NILE KIDMAN TOOK BOY ERASED ROLE TO RAISE AWARENS ABOUT GAY NVERSN THERAPY

It's a stark remr of what was once wily believed (and sadly still is by too many) about homosexualy. As a gay man myself, this movie ma me sooooo angry.

Here he stars as Jared Eamons, a llege aged young man stgglg wh the ner turmoil that acpani beg a gay man raised by a Pastor-dad the heart of the Bible belt. One boy is beaten wh bibl by his fay an effort to drive out the mons of homosexualy (nope, that's not a joke). I feel as if I have watched and summarised several films over the past 12 months that have an element of ethil and relig issu the foc is on the apparent te life chronicle of a 19 year old teenage boy, Jared Eamons and son of a Baptist pastor Marshall Eamons (a portly Rsell Crowe) disverg his sexualy and havg to nont the strict relig beliefs of his parents wh his mother, Nancy Eamons played by Nile pastor seeks advice om his elrs and sends his son for some kd of nversn treatment at a relig centre to try and "cure" him of his homosexual sexual here I don't want to pass judgment on any relig beliefs however I didn't know this was wily gog st all give good performanc.

The son of Southern Baptist preacher and r salman Marshall (Rsell Crowe) and his wife Nancy (Nile Kidman), Jared is ially lookg forward to the program, keen to be purged of his homosexual impuls. As he settl , the backstory of how he me to be signed up unfolds achronologilly, tercuttg his creasgly unsettlg time at Love Actn wh cints such as his first homosexual experience at llege, wh his nng-partner, Henry (Joe Alwyn); how his parents found out about his homosexualy; and Marshall's cisn to send him to therapy.
