: : I hope I read between the lines correct. Eric has a LEAD role but you didn't say he was playing one of the gay men. RIGHT Perhaps a counselor or relative. I know you can't answer this question but now I'm curious.
: Hi Karen,
: Well ... Eric IS to be a "happy child", as they say around here.
: But ONLY in the film!!!
: Hey! Y'all wanted to see Eric in "new roles" ... now you got it!

And why shouldn't he play a gay man in a film? Daniel Day-Lewis did, very believably, and it didn't hurt him at all. He's (Eric) an actor, and actors play all kinds of parts. I'm curious to see if he can handle the challenge, and I'm curious to see what kind of story line is being written.
