06/15/2015 Watchable documentary which highlights the deep prejudices still going on in the USA. See more 06/28/2012 Out in the Silence doesn't recite the normal talking points on either side of the gay debate. It takes a different tack: the surprisingly short documentary tells two concurrent stories about LGBT people in a small town and how they try to change small town attitudes. The most heartwarming subplot involves a member of the church and how he becomes friends with the gay filmmaker and his partner. They don't necessarily see eye to eye, but we look in on their relationship from time to time. Will the doc change minds? Maybe not, but it shows both sides can talk about their differences and begin to bridge the gap.

Oil City, PA is just north of where my folks are and where I went to college. My grandparents had a hunting cabin just north of there so I had driven through many times. Really moved at how the conservative evangelicals in the film were finally able to embrace true Christian values and open their minds and hearts to the filmmakers and others in their community. See more 10/01/2010 Some odd sound issues mar an otherwise interesting and thoughtful documentary. See more 08/13/2010 Wake up and smell the hate! A documentary about the all too familiar picture of homophobia in high school. Brought back too many memories but worth watching. See more Read all reviews
