In this article it discusses the new film “Beauty and the Beast” being banned from Alabama movie theater due to a hint of Le Fue being homosexual. I have seen this movie and I completely disagree with banning it from the theatres due to a hint that Le Fue might be gay just because he has a little dance with another guy in the end. There are many other things being hinted at in this movie such as transgender, prostitution, etc. We are living in 2017, and our society needs to learn to include things out of the ordinary. Children will grow up and eventually learn these things, and it’s better to embrace it then to go crazy about it. This is like the Temperance Movement, when Christians tried to ban alcohol from society, and guess what? It did not work, so when will people learn?
I heard about this before and it makes me so upset. I've seen the movie and it is never confirmed that Le Fue is gay and does not affect the storyline. It makes me upset that such a wholesome movie would be banned for something that is only implied in a few shots.
ReplyDeleteWow this is shocking. The movie theater should not be allowed to do this. It's their opinion, not facts.
