The moving documentary Out Late reminds us that it’s never too late to become the person you were meant to be. The leaps and bounds of LGBT progress in the past half century are abundantly apparent as we follow the tales of beautiful, older people who were unable to be themselves for the majority of their adult lives. As we watch Elaine dance to hip-hop and cruise in her convertible, Walter attend his church’s services as an out man, Ken gently touch the knee of another man, Cathy step out and marry her partner, and LeAnna smile as a woman at a beauty salon, you can’t help but to think, “better late than never,” and wish these people the best of luck on their concluding chapters.
