I just absolutely reveled in stories about my people, LGBTQ people–even if they often died tragically as was the wont of pre-2010 gay movies.
I remember growing up watching movies like Paris is Burning, The Broken Hearts Club, Urbania, Lost and Delirious, If These Walls Could Talk 2, The Laramie Project (I know it’s a play), Angels in America (YES I KNOW it’s a play) and Beautiful Thing.
