Movie Haiku:When Tom Hanks accepted his PHILADELPHIA Oscar, he tearfully thanked a gay teacher. In this hilarious knock-off, the Hanks-clone (Dillon) inadvertently outs the teacher (Kline), making manifest what his whole Indiana town, himself included, is determined to ignore. What was once merely extremely funny takes on profound importance since 11/2/04.
