Edie & Thea: the women we should be thanking today
We wrote about Edie & Thea: A Very Long Engagement when it first came out, but it seems important to mention it again considering today’s amazing ruling at the Supreme Court. Edie Windsor, who is the reason today’s ruling even exists, features in this heart warming, beautiful documentary, that tells the story of her love affair, and very long engagement, (they got engaged 4 years after meeting in 1967) with Thea Spyer. In 2007 they were married in Toronto. Today their marriage is recognized federally. Tomorrow who knows… Even though Thea is no longer with us (she lived with MS for many years) it’s still a beautiful, hopeful story. Sorry to get all gushy on you, but it is what it is. —TOM
