* Must See
“Quietly exasperating” is the only note I took during “Boy Erased,” but it encapsulates much about what makes Joel Edger...
It chronicles the good intentions and terrible impact of gay conversion therapy as filtered through the experiences of one young man coming to terms with his sexuality.
