The Greatest LGBT Films and TV Shows of
Look over the menagerie of LGBT movies and TV shows released in carefully enough, and you&#;ll uncover as many hidden gems as you will worsening cracks. In others words, there&#;s good news and bad news — but in the year&#;s overall impressive lineup, also a glimmer of hope.
On the small screen, the seemingly unending aftermath of the streaming bubble burst from saw the &#;Cancel Your Gays&#; trend push forward as LGBT series ended abruptly, and fewer projects were green lit to take their place. Stand-up comedy specials, particularly those at Netflix, continued to platform contradictory political voices with hugely disparate views about human rights — which created some bizarre situations, for good and for bad.
There have been reported declines in onscreen gender non-conforming representation across film too, albeit not as stark as those impacting actors on television.

In truth, fun and sexy are two of our greatest tools.
Even though Hollywood has pulled back from “diversity” this was still an excellent year for queer cinema. Below, I’ve written in-depth about my ten favorites, and also felt the need to shout out 20 more queer titles. (Plus 10 non-queer movies I loved too.) But as lengthy as we’re living in complexity, I think it’s important we reflect on which queer people are able to create in the absence of more mainstream support. The vast majority of directors who released queer films this year are white — even more than most years. There’s plenty to complain about in the mainstream as Emilia Pérez will likely b
20 Upcoming LGBTQ+ Movies We're Looking Forward To
