LGBTQ+ comedies - some are good, and some are something else.
Here’s a list of ones I would recommend you watch, in no particular order.
The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert
Three drag queens. a road trip. and sequins everywhere,
It’s ridiculous, but also very sweet, and I don’t know how they survived the sun and the heels.
Trailer
The Birdcage
Robin Williams is brilliant here, where a gay couple meets conservative family.
It will makes you think for half a second, before you laugh again.
Trailer
The Rocky Horror Picture Show
You’ve seen it, and you’ve might been to the theater to watch it too.
Tim Curry is a monster and a delight, with ongs you didn’t know you knew, and where weird stuff happens.
You will leave humming something dumb.
Trailer
Beautiful Thing
Two teen boys in London fall in love, and you totally root for them, and laugh at small things.
Trailer
But I’m a Cheerleader
Natasha Lyonne looks confused and fabulou, while RuPaul is perfect.
Very funny, but also a bit disturbing if you think too hard.

To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything! Julie Newmar
Patrick Swayze, Wesley Snipes, John Leguizamo - drag queens in small towns.
What more do you want?
Trailer
Trick
Composer meets go-go dancer one night in NYC.
It’s cute, and low-key, where you might forget it, or not - I can’t decide.
The characters are nice though.
Trailer
Love, Simon
Nick Robinson is adorable here, where high school is awkward, and so is coming out and your first love.
Film is warm - you smile, you cry, and you text your friends saying “watch this.”
Trailer
Torch Song Trilogy
A gay man navigating love and family, with some funny lines, and some sad lines.
Also some lines you forget but then think about later.
Classic.
Trailer
Pride
1984 Wales, featuring miners. LGBTQ+ activists, and where people sing, fight. and dance.
Heart. Humor. Politics.
Makes you feel good, then sad, then good again.
