Oscar-Winning Imitation Game Writer Graham Moore: "I'm Not Gay"
You may have thought that Imitation Game writer Graham Moore's acceptance speech for Best Adapted Screenplay last night was his way of sharing his experiences as a young gay man who tried to commit suicide because he felt like he "didn't belong." You may have thought his "Stay weird," credo was his It Gets Better '15 Remix. You'd be wrong.
Graham Moore is not gay.
Graham Moore is not gay.
Graham Moore is not gay.
Buzzfeed interviewed Moore after the Oscars and here's what he said about not being gay:
I'm not gay, but I've never talked publicly about depression before or any of that and that was so much of what the movie was about and it was one of the things that drew me to Alan Turing so much. I think we all feel like weirdos for different reasons. Alan had his share of them and I had my own and that's what always moved me so much about his story.
So that's weird. That's different. That makes Moore a man of his word.
