this documentary reminded me a lot of one from last year, Chasing Chasing Amy, where a filmmaker tackled a problematic representation of LGBTQ culture and not only shared how it might have brought them some joy, but also how it is now permanently trapped in time. That phrase we so often use, “it was different back then”, or any comparable phrase to suggest that people in the past really didn’t know any better. In Chasing Chasing Amy, Kevin Smith participated, along with various cast members, to dissect its effect on lesbian culture, and how a cisgender straight white man might … Continue reading Tribeca 2025: We Are pat!

The … Continue reading The Small Screen Diaries- The Weekly Rankings

We are where we are right now, because someone fought to advance our world a little further than where it was before. This is true broadly, and without really reservation. Everything from indoor plumbing to electricity, totally non-partisan issues, advanced because someone kept pushing it further. However, this is true for so many who don’t have a broad set of rights. People have had to create safe spaces, environments, and lives around the margins allotted. Carl Bean certainly was one of these people for the LGBTQ community, and i was sadly unaware of who he was, and his contributions until … Continue reading Tribeca 2025: I Was Born This Way

TV News: I hate when networks and streamers do this. Amazon, in their bid to take over the world as dastardly as possible, has revoked the initial order for a second season of Etoile. This not only is disrespectful to the creatives, but also the audience, who could have watched the show at their own pace, knowing a second season was guaranteed. But as Hollywood is willing to break that trust more and more, by shelving films that are completed and using them as write offs (Universal just wrote off a completed Pharrell Williams musical, so it isn’t just WBD … Continue reading The Small Screen Diaries- 06/06/25
