DVD Reviews of Serving in Silence: The Colonel Margarethe Cammermeyer Story
DVD Review: M. Cammermeyer
Summary: 3 Stars
I was lucky enough to have received a tape of this when it aired in the mid-1990s. However, I am glad that many others will now get to see it. The film does not stray for from the book, something I also recommend.
Within the gay community, there are concerns that the young, men, the happily out, etc. get center stage in media representations at the expense of others. This work speaks to rarely mentioned audiences: women, an older person, a closeted person in the military, and a person who had a heterosexual past. Personally, I thought Glenn Close fit this role much better than she did the vampy personas in "Fatal Attraction" or "Les Liaisons Dangereuses."
Too many people think that "gays" are constantly "pushing their agenda." Here, we see that Cammermeyer came out only in order to be honest in an interview. She had no intentions of becoming a spokesperson or an activist. Her future daughter-in-law says something like, "I plan on being nice to you despite your sin." I love that Cammermeyer challenged that half-buttockedness and said, "I raised my kids, paid my taxes, and obeyed the law like everyone else. This 'agreeing to disagree' won't cut it."
Because this was a made-for-TV movie, the places where commercials should be inserted will be obvious and may annoy some DVD viewers. Still, this documents an issue that was big in the 1990s after AIDS was diagnosed in the 1980s and before Massachusetts allowed gay marriage in the 2000s. I encourage many to view this.
