Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Chad Allen came out publicly in 2001 and was one of the first openly gay actors to lead a film about conversion therapy.
Released before widespread awareness of conversion therapy's harms, it helped shift queer cinema from tragedy-as-punishment to survival narratives.
