Prayers for Bobby

Tweet

Did anyone watch this movie tonight on the Lifetime Channel? It hasn't come on here yet, it will start in 15 minutes (9pm PST). I saw the commercial awhile back and kept trying to remind myself to be sure I remembered to watch it - then I forgot. Luckily today I heard a commercial on the radio that mentioned it was going to be aired tonight. If you saw it, what did you think? Here is some information for those who might want to see it - you can probably watch it on the website www.mylifetime.com Prayers for Bobby Academy Award nominee and Golden Globe winner Sigourney Weaver stars in this emotional true story about a 1970s religious suburban housewife and mother who struggles to accept her young son Bobby being gay. What happens to Bobby is tragic and causes Mary to question her faith; ultimately this mom changes her views in ways that she never could have imagined. Based on the book “Prayers for Bobby” by Leroy Aarons. Premieres January 24 at 9 pm et/pt I think this will be an interesting movie. If you were in this mom's situation, do you think you would relate to how she felt or do you think you would be the complete opposite?
