The Twilight of the Golds is an American drama television film directed by Ross Kagan Marks and written by Jonathan Tolins and Seth Bass, based on the stage play by Tolins. The film was screened at the January 1997 Sundance Film Festival prior to its broadcast premiere on Showtime in March 1997. The cast includes Jennifer Beals, Brendan Fraser, Garry Marshall, Faye Dunaway and Jon Tenney. The film deals with the issue of fictional genetic testing, and asks the question, "if testing could reveal the sexual orientation of your unborn child, and you knew he or she would be gay, would you abort?".
