Top CriticA fascinating chorus of outrage and sadness, hatred and hope.

Though well-intentioned, dealing with the relevant issues of hate crimes and gay bashing, artisticaly speaking, Moises Kaufman's film, the opening night of 2001 Sundance Fest, is quite disappointing.

Top Criticquestions our basic humanity, and gives an accurate picture of the current state of affairs of tolerance in America's schizoid version of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness

The film does give a pretty good overall picture of the situation in Laramie following the murder of Matthew Shepard.

... a workmanlike film and important in that it will reach a large audience with a story that needs to be told.
