A gay black comedy. The cast looks great, and it's got good funding behind it.

We can always hope Criterion can licence it for the channel during pride month.

IMDb says it was shot on 35mm, for as much as that's worth. When it played during Pride month on Criterion Channel, it looked pretty good.

This may make me spring for AMC+. Pop Culture Happy Hour did a show on it this morning and it sounds great. They played an audio clip with the older woman who asks Ben Whishaw, "Why do you care?" but from another point in the conversation when she asks him, "Who's going to miss me?" and he...

She truly is a wonder. We had no idea how good she was back in the days of Hot Fuzz. Truly amazing actress.

Exactly. I like Dear Evan Hansen as a musical, but it was a mistake to cast Ben Platt and surround him with an age appropriate cast for the film adaptation.

I think you're confusing this with Dear Evan Hansen.

Fiddler on the Roof takes on a very different tone if you've seen Boys in the Band.

It's interesting; as the 70s progressed, we saw more portrayals of gays in media and then the 80s came along to slap a rusty lock on the closet.

Agreed. I would pin it a little closer to High School Musical, and the gay romance is so G-rated as to potentially fly under the radar of even the most conservative of parents. I binged it over the weekend and loved it. Looking forward to the second season and even more of Cheyenne Jackson as...

I trust you've seen Kirby Dick's This Film is Not Yet Rated?

Mysterious Skin is currently on Criterion Channel.....WOW!

Anybody watched Scream, Queen on Shudder? It's a great exploration of the not-so-subtle subtext of A Nightmare on Elm Street 2: Freddy's Revenge and its impact on the career of star Mark Patton, as well as the subsequent embrace of the film by the queer community.

For those interested, The Lavender Scare airs tonight on PBS. From all reports, it's a very solid doc on the witch hunt and purging of LGBT individuals from public service.

There is precedent for this: Blue is the Warmest Colour.

There are a "handful" of titles shot in SD that have been released on BD to take advantage of the 50GB disc size, but only a handful.

I could wax poetic about how the MPAA is a joke, but it's telling that Cinecom opted to release A Room With a View unrated back in the 80s for this very reason.

Hard to say. Both this and A Room with a View were distributed by the now-defunct Cinecom, whose properties have been released by various distributors on both DVD and BD. ARWAV was released by Warner in North America through its long-standing relationship with the BBC, but the Giorgio Moroder...

And of course there's the Madame Vaastra and Jenny relationship which figures at least as prominently as Jack Harkness.
