Garrard Conley turned down the opportunity to write the adaptation himself as he believed a filmmaker would be better fit to translate his memoir to the big screen.
By the time Garrard Conley's memoir was released in 2016, only a handful of states had banned gay conversion therapy, those being Vermont, California, New Jersey, Illinois, and Oregon, along with Washington, D.C.
Actor and singer Troye Sivan who plays the character named Gary in the movie, has also contributed two original songs to the movie: "Revelation." and "The Good Side".
This was the first film to feature longtime friends Nicole Kidman and Russell Crowe. They were previously set to co-star in a 2005 adaptation of the Australian novel "Eucalyptus," which would have been directed by Jocelyn Moorhouse. The troubled production was shut down during table reads of the script and Kidman and Crowe had looked for a new shared project ever since.
This is one of two 2018 movies about teenagers forced to undergo LGBT conversion therapy. The other is The Miseducation of Cameron Post (2018).
"Gary: Fake It Till You Make It"
"Nancy Eamons: [to her son Jared] I love God. God loves me. I love my son. That's it. I think for your father it's a little bit more complicated."
