CGiii Comment

One of the two films in our database about Patrick Cowley...a scandal, considering his influence on the gay community.

A tearful, touching tribute...long overdue.

The(ir) Blurb...

Patrick (Cowley) heads to San Francisco, where the thriving queer community welcomes him, and where his prodigious and visionary musical talent will take him to the brink of stardom. Lily follows a more conventional path of marriage and children. DEAR LILY, LOVE PATRICK is a poignant look at a young life ended by tragedy at the onset of the AIDS epidemic.
