What is up with all the gay stuff?

Why did we need to see the gay kiss or the gay man dressed like a woman so much? I thought it was about Woodstock. The movie bored me from start to finish.

was the term "Gay" even used in 1969?

Yes it was, but not as widely as today, and gay could also mean "happy" then, which it rarely does now.

So a movie about a gay man should make him straight? That was hardly the point of this film anyway.

The Book actually had more of Elliot's personal life in it. The film had 3 scenes in 120 mins

The lSD scene

This film was based off of real life experiences.

Yeah, that kind of ruined the movie for me too. I thought it was going to be a enjoyable movie about Woodstock, instead it turns out to be pro-gay agenda movie. Didn't want to see that crap.
