Film #71: ANY DAY NOW (2012)

This was such a beautiful film. It's about a gay man in the 1970's fighting for the custody of his neighbours son, who has downs syndrome, as she is taken away to jail and so gets the help of his lawyer boyfriend but has to go through numerous bumps in the road due to the couples homosexual relationship.
This was totally beautiful and incredibly moving to see the love of two men for a boy and the boys reciprocated love back to them. It's a real eye opener to the lengths that some people go to to gain true happiness and safety for those they love most. The acting in particular from Alan Cumming (better known for his role of Floop in Spy Kids) was unreal, his really laid his heart on his sleeve and opened up all emotions to the camera which was remarkable to watch.
