Movie--continued

The main character in the film below actually wasn't a cop but a "defense worker"--from the Department of Defense, I suppose? I had thought I read somewhere about the movie being compared to policemen who sometimes get burnt out on the job? [--And I guess it's no wonder, considering their work must be stressful!] I had also confused the names--the villain's name was Foster; and the investigating officer was Martin Prendergast. [If some police contribute to the gay rights project, I'm sure the majority of their work and efforts are spent in actual, police work!--We couldn't expect them to be experts in entertainment, or even in human relationships!]
