Boy Erased movie costume exhibit...

In the coming-of-age drama Boy Erased, based on the 2016 memoir of Garrard Conley, Lucas Hedges plays 'Jared', the 19-year-old son of a Baptist preacher in a small American town who is forcibly outed to his parents (payed by Nicole Kidman and Russell Crowe). Jared is quickly pressured to attend a gay conversion therapy program, or else be shunned by his family, friends and church, and there he finds himself in conflict with the program's head therapist (played by director Joel Egerton).

This clever costume exhibit for the movie, adorned with the rules of the inhuman therapy program, was photographed on display at ArcLight Hollywood on October 27, 2018.

Even though you can't see them through the frosted screen, Trish Summerville was Costume Designer on the gay conversion therapy drama, and these look like the outfits the young men wear in the program.

By the way, anyone who sends their children to gay conversion therapy are despicable people, as there is nothing wrong with LGBT people in the first place.

I think this movie is going to be a tearjerker and cathartic for many people who've not been accepted by their family, or community, because of their sexuality.

Meanwhile fans of Lucas Hedges can also check out his film costume from Mid90s on display.

Plus be sure to check out these other film wardrobes from LGBT-themed movies like Battle of the Sexes, MILK, The Danish Girl and Carol.
