Leviticus
“if i have to live with this thing, i want it to look like you” GODDDDDDD.
this shit had me stressed out the entire time, not just when naim and ryan were being haunted, but genuinely the whole thing. if conversion therapy doesn’t haunt you, it will kill you. the way the characters tried to tell people and warn them as it was torturing them, just for them to be told “it’s all in your head” was horrific not because they weren’t being listened to, but because it’s real. people act as if conversion therapy isn’t “that bad,” when it actively torments and kills people and makes a mockery of love. this movie, the premise, everything was done so, so well and i have little to complain about. i wish it was a tad bit longer, whether it be extending the ending or showing naim actually going after ryan.
