Ok. I will admit it. I am SOOOOOO adicted to the Logo Network. I can't stop watching. It is like I get a hit off just anything that is on there. It is so nice to have commercials that are like regular TV, but have same-sex couples in them
So, I was watching this movie the other day. It stars Aaron Ashmore, who some of you might know as Iceman from the X-Men movies or from the Animorphs tv show that was on Nickelodeon. It is actually a biopic, which you probably figured out from the title.
Marc was a teenager in Canada who filed a court case in order to force his high school to allow him to bring his boyfriend to the prom. It was a Catholic high school so you can imagine how controversial that all was. It is amazing. I was just enthralled by the movie because it was about an everyday kid with everyday parents in a small town. He did not stand up to make a major change. He just wanted to go to the prom with his boyfriend.
One of the things that I really liked about the movie is that it also had some humor. A movie like that could really be dark. This one had those moments, but it also left me chuckling from time to time. I even had to grab the tissues when he was given his testimony. I think that stunned Ray. I am not a big cryer. It is not that I don't feel, but I think I used them all up when I was a kid.
Speaking of needing tissues, they also have this great show on that network called Coming Out. It is a reality show where people come out to someone in their life. It is an amazing show because it shows the wide range of responses that people get!!! Some are so happy while others are so depressing. It really shows how tough coming out is for the individual, though.
