Bridegroom
First screened in December 2013
Director: Linda Bloodworth Thomason. Documentary about two young gay men whose romance is cut short by the death of one partner, whose family blocks his partner from any funeral services or future contact. Interview subjects include Shane Bitney Crone.
Twitter Capsule: Crude as documentary but captures some rarely-illumined dynamics, like how mother of gay son views his partner. I wept.
