”IndieWire wrer Zack Sharf tweeted: “The Prom shouts about tolerance but has Jam Corn leang to effemate gay stereotyp every chance he gets. ”Wrg an article about Corn's “sultg” performance for Vany Fair, Richard Lawson said that Corn is “so bad” the film that he thks “no more straight actors” should play gay men “until [the film’s] ss are properly atoned for” adds that Corn is shown “fltg and lispg around the most unspired of ritur” more reactns to Corn’s performance Prom is available to stream now on Netflix.
Whenever the bate over whether straight actors should be allowed to play gay characters has reared s head (and wh time, that’s gone om every year to every week), I’ve found myself largely dismissive.
As a gay viewer, I crave thenticy wh queer stori, preferrg them to be at least -wrten by queer creators and am forever wantg the spectm of shared experienc to be more diverse and, ccially, more specific, but when to those habg queer characters, I’m ls fsed.
JAM CORN'S TURN AS A GAY MAN 'THE PROM' RID AS 'THE WORST GAYFACE A LONG, LONG TIME'
It’s the tale of a quartet of self-obssed stage actors who scend upon a small Indiana town the hop of boostg their public image by tryg to force a homophobic school system to lettg a stunt attend the prom wh her girliend. On stage, the role of a flamboyantly gay larger than life Broadway star was embodied by flamboyantly gay larger than life Broadway star Brooks Ashmanskas, who the character was reportedly wrten around. But one of the most befuddlg stg cisns arguably ever, Murphy, an openly gay wrer-director-producer who has nsistently provid centre stage opportuni to LGBT actors (om Chris Colfer Glee to the ground-breakgly diverse st of Pose to his recent all-gay update of Boys the Band), cid to hire Corn, a straight actor yet to tly prove his worth film (he was somehow the most embarrassg element of last year’s Cats, a film ma solely of embarrassg elements).
“Offensively misst” said Newsweek’s Samuel Spencer, the Telegraph’s Tim Robey wrote that ma him “embarrassed” to be gay while, most dramatilly yet accurately, Vany Fair’s Richard Lawson lled “one of the worst performanc of the 21st century” Streep and Jam Corn The Prom. It’s as if he himself has looked back but even further, back to the playground when the straight bulli would pick on the gay kid by performg outsized imprsns and as a rult, there’s a sort of meanns to the performance, as if he’s ridiculg what I image will be a large percentage of The Prom’s I fully doubt that was the tentn, there’s so ltle thought or even craft his work here that I’m not sure if there was any tentn volved at all. But while Corn is excably bad here, more blame should lie at the feet of Murphy for not only choosg to st him the first place but for then allowg him to gayface que so grotquely.
I still believe that straight actors have the abily to play gay but orr to do so, there should be not only a basic ternal nversatn (Am I right for this? Would a gay actor, or perhaps on this ocsn almost anyone else, do this better? ) but also, at the very least, a vague sign of a nnectn to a muny outsi of their own (Corn’s ia of gayns is rooted not realy but 70s ss).
