josephk, I didn't dislike that particular scene, myself, but I guess that's because I thought the kid had it coming to him, whether he was gay or not. I don't like stereotypes about gays, either, but really, I didn't think he was stereotypically gay. He was just a bully, who happened to be gay. I do understand how it could cause discomfort, though. It didn't for me, because I didn't like him at all, anyway.
I guess I like Stephen King's movies for the same reason you might dislike them, which is his <i>fixation on details of his American childhood - a certain kind of chewing gum, a specific baseball moment, a famous bicycle model, etc.</i> Those things do have relavence for me, and I love the way his stories are almost always inclusive of boys.

Anyway, I liked the movie. It's not one of my favorites of all time, but I thought it was very good.
Those are extremely nice galleries, by the way, Cal! :biggrin:
Love,
