They started to fill up again. Emotions crept out of me. Holding the Man was for me an ordinary film. So ordinary, it reaches my core--of realizing how difficult it is to be different in this world. Thank you for this film, thank you for the memoir that was made by Timothy Conigrave (that I really need to find soon; I wanna read it).
Emotions filled up more. Today, a devastating news broke out. A massive gun shooting just took place in Orlando, Florida. The worst in history of mass shooting of the United States.
I couldn't hold it any longer. After watching the film while sobbing, I started to browse my social media feeds, and read stories and news about the shooting. 'Di ko kinaya. Tears were just flowing. My friend just outted himself as gay/bisexual in Facebook because he cannot stand what is happening and the hate.
That letting go of emotions took me at least half an hour. I realized the difficulty of having to live differently.

On the other hand, I need to point out Ryan Corr's performance in the film. SOBRANG GALING can I just say?
