“Chuck Holmes, founder of Falcon Studios and one of the founding fathers of the Human Rights Campaign. (I’ll try not to hold that against him!). Chuck Holmes built a gay porn empire, then used (some of) the money to (help) fund the gay rights movement — only to find that while his money was welcome, his association sometimes wasn’t.”
I can copy/paste with the best of them, but ask the BF, I loathe inaccuracies or exaggerations, so I had to add my two cents! I seriously doubt they meant to say all he earned through Falcon went to the movement, or that he (alone) funded the movement, but I can’t let it slide – despite knowing it’s not as slick a tagline with my additions! But they are looking for help to fund the making if this documentary, and I hope my slightly re-written version helps.
I just pledged! – it looks fascinating and I like being able to help out projects like this when I can.
So, check out the KICKSTARTER page for Seed Money: The Chuck Holmes Story – then facepage it, googleplug it, or better yet, pledge a few bucks (i’m looking forward getting my copy of the doc!)
