Terminal Diseases And Julianne Moore seem to be a recipe for critical success in Freeheld early-onset Alzheimer’s is replaced by Cancer, watch UK trailer. In a true love story a dying police officer fights for the rights for equal rights for her same sex partner.
With the recent U.S government law changes for States to accept same sex partnerships/marriages what perfect time to promote the film and the rights of the Gay community and that all love is equal.
Based on the Oscar®-winning short documentary and adapted by the writer of Philadelphia, Freeheld is the true love story of Laurel Hester [Julianne Moore] and Stacie and their fight for justice. A decorated New Jersey police detective, Laurel is diagnosed with cancer and wants to leave her hard earned pension to her domestic partner, Stacie Andree [Ellen Page]. However the county officials, Freeholders, conspire to prevent Laurel from doing this. Hard-nosed detective Dane Wells [Michael Shannon], and activist Steven Goldstein [Steve Carell], unite in Laurel and Stacie’s defence, rallying police officers and ordinary citizens to support their struggle for equality.
This film is reminder of a time when same sex couple in the eyes of the law had no rights and if anything a sort of homage to the activists who fought the bureaucracy. Freeheld also marks one of the first films Ellen Page playing a gay character since she officially announced her own sexuality. This has awards potential written all over it, dramatic, emotional, most of all a determined spirit, Oscar glory for Page?
Freeheld is set for an October UK release co-starring Luke Grimes, Gaberiel Luna.
