Inlaws & Outlaws (2005) rating: 9/10

Made back in 2005, it contains all the brilliance of a modern 2010 understanding of the same-sex marriage battle. Interviews. Young, old, gay, straight, single, married, divorced. I found a bit stunning the previously closeted man who had amicably but still painfully divorced his kindly school teacher wife (two kids), and as well the lesbian Mormon woman who had married -- with her lover as maid of honor -- and then divorced. But then get stunned again at the lengthy and happy relationships lasting decades.

In the extras, don't miss the insightful comments of the young gay male couple under the title Tradition. They somehow don't seem well matched, but who knows.
