That is the title of the piece, and I couldn't have done better. Or worse, depending on the point of view.
It remains to be seen if audiences will agree with Mr. Cain, and pay money to bring their kids to see "this short but explicitly gay scene."
Because that is what we are talking about here. This is a kid's movie, not an adult movie.Matt Cain, editor-in-chief of Attitude magazine, said: "It may have been a long time coming but this is a watershed moment for Disney.
"By representing same-sex attraction in this short but explicitly gay scene, the studio is sending out a message that this is normal and natural - and this is a message that will be heard in every country of the world, even countries where it's still socially unacceptable or even illegal to be gay.
"It's only a first step towards creating a cinematic world that reflects the world in which many of us are now proud to live. But it's a step in the right direction and I applaud Disney for being brave enough to make it - and in doing so hopefully helping to change attitudes and bring about real social progress."
