The Sheldon Kennedy Story (1999 TV Movie)
9/10
Heartbreaking and Insightful
27 November 2023
This movie is heartbreaking and insightful. Sheldon was very brave to allow his story to be told and his doing so has surely helped many many men find healing. As well as protecting future generations from what he experienced as a youth in the hockey world. I understand why it may not generally have higher ratings since the production quality might not be full on Hollywood, but its well acted, especially by the main character. Some scenes are intensely emotional and the actor portrayed the pain perfectly. The story is one that needs to be told, and needs to be listened to. Many years later this movie still hangs with me. If you like to experience someone else's life and understand child and teen sex abuse, especially of a male, it's an essential watch.
