Hard Pill
I checked out the WPIRG Rainbow Reels Queer Film Festival last night with Wally and Pat. One of the feature films I really enjoyed was Hard Pill.
The premise of the film comes when a thirty-something man (Tim), being unsatisfied with his life as a homosexual, volunteers for a controversial pharmaceutical study for a drug designed to make gay men straight.
It's quite a heartfelt story, as he struggles not necessarily about being gay, but rather with the gay community's obsession with drugs, promiscuity, and looking hot.
There was a really good quote worth sharing:
"I hate that the currency in the gay world is just being attractive or hot... and I'm just... broke."
Great movie, and I'm sure it speaks to many within the community. Highly recommended.
