The amount of pain he must have went through to make something that resembled himself, that was so close to is his heart at a time when no one was ready for somthing like that . At a time it was only a taboo , something that we could not speak about out loud , something that was illigal. It takes a lot of courage to make something as beautiful as this at that time and i think it was his courage that made him of the best director of our time.
It wasn't just a movie it was art.
