Made me angry but that's the point

[preppy-3 · 10/10 · 19 June 2009]

Mock documentary about a woman who's part of an anti-gay group (it's suggested she's Rev. Phelps wife). She talks to a camera while hiding in a closet (ho ho) and starts by spewing vicious anti-gay slogans...but then calm downs and explains why she is this way and why they attack gays. This is inter cut with actual footage of anti-gay groups protesting at gay rallies and such. As it goes on you begin to see something you won't be expecting. At turns sad, infuriating and even a little touching. I almost stormed out at the beginning with all the anti-gay dialogue (I'm an openly gay man), but managed to keep my seat and realized all the viciousness at the beginning is necessary for the integrity of this short. Beautiful acted also. It's hard to describe--you have to see it. Very good and important. Recommended.
