Trivia
Filming started the day before Thanksgiving, making those working on the film unable to return home for the holiday, so the cast and crew had Thanksgiving dinner in the home where the interiors were shot.

Goofs
There's much discussion about being in the Jacuzzi, but the tub Sybil gets into is a claw-foot tub that clearly has no whirlpool feature.

Excellent movie!

I had an opportunity to see "Oy Vey! my son is gay" in Montreal,where this movie was world premiered. Absolytely fabulous!!! I just want to thank those who made this film and brought it to the big screen. It is truly clever and entertaining family comedy, I was watching it in a company of my teenager sons. My kids were talking about this film for the rest of the evening.I would definitely recommend go and watch it!

Forget the fact it was entertaining, it brings this important powerful

message to every one out there about unconditional love and acceptance. Very nicely done, was very much surprised with such an amazing cast for low budget film. I truly hope it ll be theatrically realized for more people watch and enjoy. Good luck!!!
