Boy Erased

This is not a sneak preview. This film has released.

After a young man (Lucas Hedges) is outed to his parents (Russell Crowe & Nicole Kidman) as being gay, he is put to a conversion therapy program. The chief therapist (Joel Edgerton) aggressively pressures & bullies participants into submission. Hedges gives an amazing performance as the conflicted individual dealing with his family & his feelings. Crowe & Kidman are outstanding with the subtle nuances given to their complex characters trying to love their son & hold on to their religious beliefs. This emotional film about misguided treatment in the name of God is based on a true story. Summaries & photos of the real family run the the end.

Alien gives it 3 “Love in Action” stars out of 4.
