A sad episode in this series
alex-esp7 March 2008
Warning: Spoilers
I didn't have the chance to listen to this episode in the original version, as the Spanish TVE started the dual broadcasting very recently with Cold Case (I daresay that no episode of the 1st, 2nd and 3rd season can be watched in Spain with dual audio). Even though, I find this episode very sad and very beautiful, and a good protest against homophobes, it nearly made me cry like the film Philadelpia. I highly recommend it for those who look for gay historic references. It's really sad how gay men were treated in the sixties by the avant garde nation the USA pretended to be.

The protagonist in this chapter was a very nice guy, it really hurts to see how he is beaten by the homophobes. I don't know if the series contains any other chapter with references to homosexuality, but it should contain another one with a new positive point of view.

Remarkably progressive for 2003

I am very impressed with how forward this episode is. Cold Case is one of my favorite shows of all time and now it's on HBO Max, so I am rewatching. This episode is tremendous and it is two decades ahead of its time. I am impressed and awed and tip my caps to the writers.

Heartbreaking Episode

As the mother of a gay son, this episode broke my heart. I am so glad that people have gotten smarter (for the most part) and wiser. I look back, though, at the men in my world when I was a child and many of them could have been the villain in this story.

As always, the music in this episode is sheer perfection.

One of the Best Cold Cases ..

This is one of my favorites.. Takes you back to another time , and reminds you how much things have changed . It's bittersweet. A mother trying to find out the truth about he death of her son , before she dies . This one always made me sad for both . 💔

One of the best episodes of the series, in my opinion. I saw this years ago on TV and thought about it a lot since. Caught it again on Amazon Prime (Ireland) and it's just as powerful and poignant today.
