This means something.

It's important.

By Samoa I am assuming they mean the other side of the island from American Samoa.

Actually, I'm not too surprised the Samoans have banned this film. Generally speaking Samoans are deeply religious. They have a unique flavor of Christianity and it permeates nearly all aspects of their lives.

Not that sexual ambiguity is unknown in Samoa. Their society recognizes a transgender concept called Fa'afafine, where a male in a family can assume a female role and be raised and treated as a female -- but that apparently isn't the same thing as choosing to be homosexual.

I went to go see this by accident.

I thought the film was called “MILF”.

A Hollywood movie that lionizes a gay guy. Man, that’s original.

Samoa's Censorship Board has rejected an application for DVDs of the movie -- which is based on the life of gay activist Harvey Milk -- to be distributed in stores. Principal Censor Leiataua Niuapu Faaui says, "There are rules and guidelines for these things." ...leading Samoan human rights activist Ken Moala angrily questioning the decision... "I do not think it should be banned. It is basically a documentary about the human endeavour to conquer something that people tend to discriminate against. It's really harmless, I don't know how it would affect Samoan lifestyle. It is totally different and not applicable to here, it is pretty tame really."
