I came home and watched one of the best biographies I have ever seen... Behind The Candelabra. I didn't know much of Liberace. I knew he was a famous pianist, and I'm sure I knew he was gay, but I didn't take in any other interests of him. I put him in the back of my mind for safe keeping since I knew he was famous and people might talk about him. Yet after I watched Behind The Candelabra and enveloped myself with Liberace and Scott's lives together, I was blown away. I couldn't believe Damien and Douglas did such an absolute fabulous job in performing. Sure, it's a little awkward seeing two perfectly straight men have intercourse in the butt, but still! That's what acting's all about - believing and imagining what the actors can pull off on stage.
I loved the movie. I didn't want it to end. However, when the end came (no spoiling!) I was heartbroken. Like, what the producer did to express Scott's moment in time was astonishing and touching and Scott's feelings became my own... Emotional sensation swirled with complete awe.
Thank you, whoever you are who thought up this film, for putting it together and sharing it with us lesser talented people (Haha)
I recommend EVERYONE to see it.
