i actually don’t think i have a singular favorite queer movie but i’m recing pride since it is lesser-known (despite having a great cast!). it’s based on a true story and highlights a beautiful intersection of the labor and gay lib movements! when i went to london i visited the bookstore from the film (gay’s the word).
bound is also a favorite of mine! :) i recently watched saving face and loved that one too. the incredibly true adventures of two girls in love (which i have rec’d before) is also a favorite. bodies bodies bodies, bottoms, jennifer’s body, and but i’m a cheerleader as well!
anyone who hasn't seen this, i don't care about the list you have in ur notes app, watch this one next.
about a gay rights group (comprised of flaming gays) in 80s london who support this tiny welsh town over the course of the the miners strikes. its a true story and they portrayed it in such an earnest way. its funny, and it hammers at your heartstrings big time. cannot recommend enough
When I was seven, an 80s movie aired on TV, and I watched it until my mom turned it off at bedtime. I cried, wanting to see the rest, but she refused, and I eventually fell asleep. The next day, I couldn’t remember the movie’s name, so I never finished it—until today. It aired again, and the experience was surreal; I remembered every detail and finally saw the ending.
