@sawyerpoet 4 года назад

P Lucas I know I’m free to suffer fools and I usually don’t, but being nice has its place - at times. You never know with whom you’re dealing, especially online. For instance, I could easily make a snarky comment about you not knowing that the word you chose is “disdain,” not “distain.” But I’ll be nice.

When the dad realized his neighbor had lost her son forever, he realized that he could too, unless he made amends.

@AdamFlanagan 6 лет назад

I'm more curious about the ghost boy than the father's homophobia...and I feel badly for the woman having lost her husband & son.

@nomebear 3 года назад

Yeah, what about the ghost boy and his ability to manifest.....

@bradsmack1 3 года назад

@@nomebear Maybe it's Casper the Friendly Boy. Y'know, we really don't know that much about Casper BEFORE he became a famous ghost. I think there's a story there.

@pennywiselogan 3 года назад

I didn't understood this that way.... To me the boy has 2 dads, and the neighboor wasn't expecting that so when he get the baseball stuff he goes giving them to the woman (propably the only woman in his neighborhood ?) because he actually believed she was the kid's mom ? Plus, we can see a moving truck at the beginning so that would mean the kid's family is new in the neighborhood, that would be why nobody knows kid's family is a 2 dads family and would explain why the man goes giving baseball stuff to the woman

@Taevarth 5 лет назад

For everyone confused about the Ghost Boy. He asks "Do you have a son?" And then finds out that his neighbor lost her son and family. The boy's purpose was to make him feel guilty about abandoning his gay son, and maybe his son used to play baseball with him too, until he came out to his dad. I think the dad realized that he may not have his son forever, or vice versa, and he wanted to make amends.

@ZanderFoster 6 лет назад

I think a more climactic end to the conflict would have been for the dad to look back on pictures of his son as a kid and for it to be the little boy with the glove.

@tomasroma2333 6 лет назад

That would actually have been genius!

@magsisdumb478 6 лет назад

Yeah but that wouldn’t make too much sense, the mom said that both the boy and the dad died

@anayumi5987 5 лет назад

That would kinda mean they would have to take out the mom from the video, otherwise it wouldn’t make sense

@spookyslut 5 лет назад

It would have made for a much better acceptance and rekindling. This video just kind of fell short of potential.

@micke_mango 5 лет назад

I don't agree. Realizing by watching old photos is perhaps a more _realistic_ way to depict the change process, but the visualization would be kind of boring. In a film, a magical metaphore is more interesting and gives more interaction and acting. Without this part of the plot, the film would only have one actor and a lot of the film story would only take place inside his head...

@avi7278 4 года назад

Some strange guy is returning your dead son's possessions that you're sure he never had access to, and you don't ask more questions than that? Kind of weird...

My mother needed a long time to come around. Sometimes people need time to accept it. It's not always fair to expect unconditional acceptance right away.

@sinclopus 6 лет назад

Stephen Costello yes it is! you expect to be understood and accepted mostly by the people that gave you a birth rather than others!! And it ends always on the contrary! Is this fair?

@StefanoC1152 6 лет назад

Sinclopus what could I say. I am taking it as it comes as I am older and had no role models like the "kids" today. Now that time has passed and my mother treats us well, I regret lashing out at her when it all went down. That is just how I feel now. BTW, yesterday was our 35th anniversary and my mother is home now knitting a pocketbook for our granddaughter. Whatever....

@goblueinga 6 лет назад

You are right, Stephen. I took my parents a while too. It was worth the wait.

@asher8683 6 лет назад

everybody accepts their kid being straight unconditionally right away?? so yeah actually a child being gay shouldn't affect a parent's love for them

@frankie9430 6 лет назад

Yeah why would a gay person want to be loved by their parents right away, so annoying how they want acceptance for for something that wasn’t their choice right away🙄 like give the parents some time to figure out what they’re gonna do with themselves now that LITERALLY NOTHING is gonna change.

@RishayanPorMexico 4 года назад

Although I realize that this movie has an LGBT theme, what really stood out to me in this film was more the utter unfriendliness and downright rudeness of the american anglos. After living most of my adult life in Mexico where people are just soooo different, at times when I return to the US, this is exactly how I find the anglo population to be, as portrayed in this movie. An excellent portrayal of a sad reality!

Wow this was soooooo powerful that little boy was an angel sent as a reminder of his son. Did you see the look on his face when the little boy asked did he have a son that woke him up. As a gay male I'm so glad that woke him up and he decided to reach out to his child. You only get one life make the best of it and make the best decisions possible to make it easier, even tho life itself isn't easy. We don't get 9 lives.
