Prayers for Bobby

Prayer for Bobby is a film based on true events. The film is about Mary Griffith a christian mother coming to terms with the death of her gay son Bobby Griffith who killed himself by jumping off a bridge due to his mothers religious intolerance to his homosexuality.

The first time I watched this film I pretty much cried throughout the whole thing. It starts off by showing you the story of Bobby and how he felt and allows you to get to know him, then he kills himself and it shows you the story of Mary coming to terms with his death and then becoming a gay rights campaigner.

This film is a must see for any gay person. It stars Sigourney Weaver as Mary Griffith and Ryan Kelley as Bobby Griffith, they are very good actors who really make you feel like you know the characters. It makes you feel some sort of connection to the characters.

The DVD is available in my stores if you wish to buy it, just click on the link in the top right hand corner.
Thank You
