Queer Family Films
Posted on 1 April, 2022“Family” is a tricky word to define. It can mean different things in different situations, both positive and not-so-positive. When it comes to a family film, that vague depiction remains. Most would associate a “family film” with animation or a film made with young kids in mind – “a film for the entire family.” Yet it can also be a film that focuses on the importance of family to tell its story. Both would be…

Queer Kinda Christmas Films
Posted on 1 December, 2021AKA: Queer films set at Christmas, but aren’t actually Christmas films. Confused? That’s OK! So was I while watching a few of these films. When searching for queer Christmas films to review this year, these five films showed up within the results. But most of their posters don’t scream out “Christmas” so I was left rather puzzled.

Season Of Love

Shared Rooms
Posted on 24 December, 2019Note: This movie review is one of the films in my Top 5 Queer Holiday Film 2019 “Shared Rooms” is another queer holiday film from director/writer Rob Williams, the first being #2 on my list, “Make the Yuletide Gay”. While it might seem odd that I would place this film at my #1 spot, despite having a lower ranking and a few more flaws, the reality is that they both are at the top of my queer…

Tomorrow
Posted on 27 December, 2020Ah – that high school crush on your best friend, questioning whether you are just close buddies – or perhaps something more. Add in the uncertainty of the future when you’re both seniors about to head off to college and a New Year’s Eve party to welcome in the new millennium, you’ve got the gist of “Tomorrow”! This coming of age queer short film is rather stunning to watch, a simple story that’s actually full…
