Editorial Reviews
Alternately candid, funny, poignant and heartbreaking, When I Knew documents a cross-section of men and women of all ages and lifestyles who invoke the exact moment in their lives - whether as toddlers, grade-schoolers, teens or young adults - when they knew, once and for all, that they were gay. Inspired by the book of the same name by Robert Trachtenberg, award-winning filmmakers Fenton Bailey and Randy Barbato (The Eyes of Tammy Faye) capture a wide array of answers to the question "When did I know?" through this inventive portrait of gay men and women, each remembering the unique experience that brought them to the conclusion that they would never be "straight." Though some of the stories are tainted with loss, most proudly affirm that embracing one's sexual orientation is key to being true to yourself.

When we all knew.,
By Seb Christensen (San Francisco, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: When I Knew (DVD)
"When I Knew" is a documentary that recently aired on Cinemax/HBO that recalls the moments when LGBT people first realized they were different. I watched it when it aired and I was completely mesmerized by the stories. Some are very funny (the boy who loved watching Little Mermaid to the boy obsessed with the Dogan's pill box man) while some are sad but relatable (the story where a father tells his son what gay really means. I won't spoil it for you). Regardless, the movie boasts a powerful collection of stories that are poignant and relatable. Recommended for people who are lost in their identity or just want to reminisce about coming out stories. My only complaint was that it was short! LOL"When I knew is not a moment anyone quickly forgets. It's the moment someone realizes (he or she) is radically and unacceptably different from friends and family. For many of us, it is the moment we learn to hide and to lie about ourselves. It can be a lonely and frightening time." -from "When I Knew" filmmaker Randy Barbatos
