MERRY AND GAY: 8 QUEER MOVI TO WATCH OVER THE CHRISTMAS HOLIDAYS

The hope, of urse, is that someday won’t feel like a Christmas miracle every time we see a queer person on screen the while we’re on our way to that realy — the spir of Christmas, I tst that this will happen, a few plot pots om now — here are some holiday films featurg queer stori, wh jt the appropriate amount of ches for the Yuleti All the Way (2021) Helmed by Tony-wng director Michael Mayer, Netflix’s first gay holiday movie tells the story of Peter (Michael Urie). — a ol nt, and this stg choice is only the cherry on top of a film that stars three out actors for s gay the Christmas Tree (2021) Lifetime’s first-ever lbian Christmas movie, Unr the Christmas Tree is part of the work’s “It’s a Wonrful Lifetime” lp this year, and tells the story of marketg workaholic Alma Beltran (Elise Bman) and Christmas tree whisperer Charlie Freemont (Tattiawna Jon) the film, Charlie is exced when she fds the perfect tree for the Mae Governor’s Holiday Celebratn. Dashg December (2020) Paramount Network’s Dashg December is to gays as Christmas at the Ranch is to lbians.

But bt of all, I thk, is MacDowell’s performance as Deb, who, like some of the other parents the films on this list, jt wants to fd love for her gay kid. Brooke reveals how she knew Lren was gay even before *Lren* knew Lren was gay, and shar why she thks so many theatre boys picked her as a queer-adjacent safe haven to e out to. Mark discs his small town South Carola nservative Christian upbrgg, and tells the "gayer than gay" story of how he me out to his mother at her hospal bedsi (let's jt say Steel Magnolias was volved).

And most importantly, we fally get to the bottom of the eternal qutn: *did* seeg the movie Mannequ as a child make Lren gay?? Pl Pacent discs his Italian-Amerin Catholic(ish) upbrgg on Long Island, and how havg (closeted) gay iends the '60s helped normalize queerns for him.
