I feel NO sympathy
i suppose i'm supposed to feel a little sorry for dennis quaid's character, after all, he is a homosexual in a time when it's illegal and definatly not something you come out with and tell other people about, but i don't feel anyhting for him.
he's a jerkwad through and through, he's not a good person at all, i don't see one redeeming quality in him that would make me feel sorry for him and sympathize with his situation.
it's his own damn fault that his life is so screwed up, i know that he married cathy because he thought it was what he was supposed to do, but just because he's in a marrige he shouldn't be in doesnt mean that he can go out and screw a bunch of other people. it doesn't matter if they're male or female, he's still being unfaithful and probably bringing all sorts of diseases home to his wife every time he kisses her.
he does nothing to help his wife, he doesnt try to help himself (no, i don't see homosexuality as a disease, but thats what it was in the 50's so he should have put more effort into getting cured), and even has sex with random guys in miami, which was a really creepy scene, by the way.
overall, i just see him as a giant *beep* sknkhead, i'm pro gay rights, and i hope it's leagalized here soon, i think debate is beginning tomorrow as a matter of fact, but i just really hate this guy, he has nothing good going for him (aside from the fact that he's dennis quaid, and looks freaking awsome with a shirt off).
i agree with ironbutterfly, he is the villian, he ruined everything.
