InOut

The 1997 film In&Out, directed by Frank Oz gives a comedic example of what might happen to a small town man when he is outed. Howard Brackett finds that his so-called ordinary life falls apart when he's "outed" by a former student. This student announces to the world at the Oscars that Howard is gay, while accepting an award for portraying a homosexual in a movie. Howard lives in Greenleaf, Indian a typical American, conservative, small town. He's soon to be wed to his fiance who's been with Howard for three years, but has been trying to get Howard all her life. With the perfect timing of Howard being announced gay only days before his wedding, he's destined to find what his true "preference" is. The movie uses this quest of self-discovery to say that homosexuality can be most often judged by appearance, gestures, and attitude.

There's a scene where Howard is riding his bike, which is his main source of transportation, and almost crashes into a news reporter, Peter, who's been following Howard around for the last few days just so he doesn't miss anything that happens to him. He's following Howard because he thinks it will be a great story. He also feels bad for Howard since he has to put up with all the rumors, and everyone sa


The tape then tells Howard there is one more test, dancing. "Truly manly men don't dance" the tape says it then plays really upbeat music. Howard hears the music and he tries not to listen. He battles with himself not to dance so he shakes and moves around a little bit, but he doesn't dance. The tape then tells him "At all costs do not dance, bite someone, kick someone. Men don't dance they have bad backs! Arnold Schwarzenegger doesn't dance, he can barely walk." After all this Howard just can't fight it any more, so he dances to the music and he loves it. From this he realizes that he can't hide who he is anymore, he has to tell everyone that he is gay.

This is when Peter decides to talk to Howard about his problem. At first Howard completely denies the fact of being gay, to Peter and everyone else. Peter explains to Howard that he is gay, that one day he just got sick of everything, talking low and changing pronouns so he just came out. He basically said he was sick of acting like a heterosexual and following all the do's and don'ts of manhood and that he wasn't being true to himself. He tells Howard not to care what others think, to just be your self. To prove that he's right about Howard, Peter kisses him and Howard doesn't even back away or try to stop him.
