RECENT FILMS LIKE BETY AND THE BEAST AND POWER RANGERS HAVE “BROKEN GROUND” OR “MA HISTORY”—ACRDG TO THE HEADL, ANYWAY—AS MAJOR HOLLYWOOD RELEAS FEATURG OPENLY QUEER CHARACTERS. UNFORTUNATELY, THEIR “G OUT” SCEN HAVE MOSTLY BEEN LOST TRANSLATN.“I WATCHED ALIEN: COVENANT AND THERE’S A GAY UPLE , AND I HAD NO IA,” SPA NIGHT DIRECTOR ANDREW AHN TELLS VANY FAIR, LGHG. “AND I LOOK FOR GAY SH ALL THE TIME. I N’T BELIEVE I MISSED .”GLAAD’S FIFTH ANNUAL HOLLYWOOD REPORT RD NFIRMS THAT THE GAY MUNY IS STILL DRAMATILLY UNRREPRENTED MASTREAM MOVI: JT 23 OF THE 125 FILMS RELEASED BY STUDS 2016 FEATURED LGBTQ CHARACTERS, AND 10 OF THE 23 GAVE THEM LS THAN A MUTE OF SCREEN TIME. THE DIE REALM HAS BEE OUR PRIMARY SOURCE FOR MORE DIVERSY ON SCREEN. IT’S WHAT MA POSSIBLE FOR MOONLIGHT—A FILM ABOUT A QUEER PERSON OF LOR—TO W BT PICTURE AT THE OSRS. YET THAT SPACE WH S OWN PLITNS, AS MOONLIGHT DIRECTOR BARRY JENKS HAS DISCSED AT LENGTH.FOR SOMEONE LIKE LOVE IS STRANGE DIRECTOR IRA SACHS, WHO’S BEEN THE BS FOR MORE THAN 25 YEARS, N FEEL “NEXT TO IMPOSSIBLE” TO MAKE LGBTQ FILMS. “I’M ENURAGED BY ANYONE WHO MANAG TO MAKE A FILM WH LGBTQ NTENT THAT FURTHERS THE VISIBILY,” HE SAYS OF MOVI LIKE MOONLIGHT AND THIS YEAR’S CALL ME BY YOUR NAME, WHICH IS ALREADY GENERATG AWARDS BUZZ. “I NEED THE VISIBILY AS MUCH AS ANYONE WHO’S STARTG OR BEGNG, AND AS MUCH AS THE DIENCE. IT’S A REMR THAT ’S NOT IMPOSSIBLE, THAT I’M WRONG TO SOME EXTENT.”JAMIE BABB, WHO PUT HERSELF ON THE MAP 1999 WH BUT I’M A CHEERLEAR, THOUGHT THE DTRY WOULD CHANGE WHEN BROKEBACK MOUNTA ME OUT 2005—BUT SHE TOO STILL NS TO THE SAME ROADBLOCKS THAT PERSISTED THE 90S. “IT’S SAD THAT THE HOLLYWOOD RPORATE MACHE, WHICH IS VERY MUCH QUEER AS FAR GLBT WORKG THE DTRY . . . ARE STILL TIMIDATED BY THE BOTTOM LE AND WORRIED THAT PEOPLE DON’T WANT TO WATCH QUEER STORI WHEN THAT LSON HAS BEEN, I THOUGHT, LEARNED TIME AND TIME AGA.”LGBT MOVI ARE STILL TOO OFTEN PIGEONHOLED AS “NICHE” ENTERTAMENT. JT KELLY HAD A “HEO REALIZATN” TO THAT EFFECT DURG THE FIRST FANCG MEETGS FOR HIS 2015 FILM I AM MICHAEL, STARRG JAM FRAN AS A GAY MAN WHO BE AN ANTI-GAY CHRISTIAN PASTOR. COMPANI WOULD SAY, “WE JT DID A GAY FILM LAST YEAR AND DIDN’T DO WELL.” HE RELLS THKG, “WOULD SOMEONE SAY WE DID A STRAIGHT FILM LAST YEAR AND DIDN’T DO WELL?”ELIZA HTMAN, APPROACHG THE GENRE AS A HETEROSEXUAL FILMMAKER, WAS UGHT OFF GUARD WH THE REACTN TO HER 2017 SUNDANCE SELECTN BEACH RATS. SHE EXPLORED “ADOLCENT FEMALE OBSSNS” WH HER FEATURE BUT, IT FELT LIKE LOVE—BUT WHEN SHE TOOK A MORE MASCULE APPROACH TO THE SAME NCEPT, WAS DISMISSED BY STG DIRECTORS AS THE ONE “WH ALL THE GAY SEX.”“IT WAS A LTLE NCERNG THAT THAT WAS WHAT PEOPLE WERE REACTG TO,” SHE SAYS, “BEE I THOUGHT THE FILM HAD A LOT MORE PTH THAN THAT. BUT I THK PEOPLE ARE A LOT MORE PROTECTIVE OF YOUNG TALENT, AND I THK THAT THERE ARE STILL STIGMAS AROUND WHAT KD OF ROL PEOPLE SHOULD AND SHOULDN’T PLAY.” BRISH ACTOR HARRIS DICKSON, WHO STARS BEACH RATS, HAD TO ASK HIS REPRENTATN TO BACK DOWN WHEN THEY “PHED BACK VERY HARD AGAST THE NUDY AND THE NTENT” OF THE STORY. HTMAN UNRSTANDS THEIR RPONSE TO SOME EXTENT—’S “THEIR JOB [TO] PROTECT THEIR CLIENTS”—BUT SHE ALSO BELIEV “THERE’S STILL A LOT OF TABOOS AROUND MALE NUDY AND MALE SEXUALY THAT EXIST FILM.”AS A TRANS NATIVE AMERIN WOMAN, SYDNEY FREELAND WAS TOLD THAT HER 2014 FEATURE DNKTOWN’S FT WAS A “NICHE OF A NICHE.” SHE LOOSELY BASED THE NCEPT ON HER OWN EXPERIENCE LIVG ON A NAVAJO RERVATN NEW MEXI, BUT MANY FANCIERS CLAIMED “THERE ISN’T A MARKET FOR THIS, PEOPLE DON’T WANT TO SEE THIS, PEOPLE AREN’T TERTED THIS, AND SO ON AND SO FORTH.” AHN, ONE OF THE MOST LD BREAKOUTS OF 2016’S SUNDANCE FILM FTIVAL, FACED SIAR REMARKS, WHICH SENT HIM TO KICKSTARTER FOR HIS DIRECTORIAL BUT ABOUT A CLOSETED MAN A SMALL KOREAN-AMERIN MUNY. “WE ULDN’T EVEN GET THE MONEY TO GO THROUGH PREPRODUCTN,” HE SAYS.AND THOUGH TV GENERALLY HAS A REPUTATN FOR BEG RISKIER AND MORE CREATOR-IENDLY THAN FILM, BABB—WHO HELMED EPISOS OF THE L WORD AND LOOKG, AMONG A LENGTHY LIST OF SHOWS—BELIEV TELEVISN IS ALSO GOG BACKWARDS. “I LOVE TRANSPARENT AND THAT’S A GREAT SHOW WH QUEER CHARACTERS, FOR SURE, BUT THERE SHOULD BE 10 OF THEM NOW,” SHE SAYS.BABB HAS TRIED TO GET THREE DIFFERENT QUEER-ORIENTED SERI OFF THE GROUND OVER THE PAST FIVE YEARS. “I’M GETTG THE TOP MEETGS WH THE HEAD OF SHOWTIME, THE HEAD OF NETFLIX, THE HEAD OF HBO,” SHE SAYS. BUT A GREEN LIGHT REMAS ELIVE. THE CLOST SHE ME WAS WH AN ADAPTATN OF INGRID JUNGERMANN’S WEB SERI F TO 7TH, A CURB YOUR ENTHIASM-STYLE LBIAN EDY THAT “TALKS ABOUT QUEER CULTURE OM THE SI AND MAK FUN OF .” SHOWTIME ORRED A SCRIPT, BUT SHE SAYS THE PROJECT NEVER MOVED FORWARD. THE GENERAL RPONSE, SHE SAYS, WAS, “OH, IF ’S A LBIAN SHOW, IS THERE GONNA BE A LOT OF HOT SEX? IT’S SUCH A NICHE.”MOONLIGHT GROSSED $65 LN WORLDWI ON A $1.5 LN PRODUCTN BUDGET, BUT THE NSENS STILL SEEMS TO BE THAT FANCIERS DON’T SEE AN DIENCE FOR THE FILMS BEYOND THE LGBTQ MUNY. WHEN THEY DON’T SEE AN DIENCE, THEY DON’T SEE A PROF. WHEN ASKED TO SCRIBE THE MOST DIFFICULT STAGE OF FILM VELOPMENT, SACHS DON’T NEED TO MULL HIS ANSWER. “CAPAL,” HE SAYS. “VERY SIMPLY, PALISM MAK THE CREATN OF WORK FOR MARGALIZED MUNI DIFFICULT.”AND PAL IS WHY HOLLYWOOD, SPE THE PRENCE OF LGBTQ EXECUTIV, STILL LARGELY NSIRS THE VISIBILY OF THE CHARACTERS TO BE A RISK. TAKE BETY AND THE BEAST, FOR EXAMPLE. OUT OF S $1.25 BILLN GROSS, $85.8 LN ME OM CHA, $37.5 LN ME OM SOUTH KOREA, AND $14.6 LN ME OM RSIA—TERRORI WH CENSORSHIP LAWS THAT N TARGET LGBTQ NTENT. “THE TRAGEDY IS THAT THIS MOMENT WHERE WE THK WE’RE MAKG PROGRS, WHICH WE HAVE DOMTILLY, THERE IS AN ERASURE UNTRI LIKE, LET’S START WH RSIA,” SACHS EXPLAS. “I ED TO GO TO THE GAY FTIVALS THERE, AND THE LAST TIME I SENT MY FILMS THERE THE FTIVALS HAD BOMB SR TWO OR THREE TIM—AND THAT’S ONE STAGE.”KELLY LLS “A B SANE” WHEN HE’S TOLD BEFORE EVEN SHOOTG A QUEER-LEANG FILM THAT “ WILL FOR SURE NOT SELL THE 40 MARKETS,” BUT HE’S ALSO NOT NVCED HOMOPHOBIA IS THE SOLE TERRENT. HE ALSO C THE “TRAGIC STATE OF THE DIE FILM WORLD”—AND HE’S RIGHT, TO SOME EXTENT. THE MARKET HAS CHANGED SCE THE EARLY 2000S, WHEN STUDS BEGAN PHG THE STORI TO SPECIALTY DIVISNS LIKE FOC FEATUR AND FOX SEARCHLIGHT—AND GIVG THEM SMALLER BUDGETS. “I’M TRYG TO BE REALISTIC STEAD OF JT PLAG THAT ’S HARR TO GET GAY FILMS MA,” KELLY SAYS, “EVEN THOUGH IS, AND EVEN THOUGH ANNOYS ME EVERY DAY.”MOST POPULAROUR FLAG MEANS DEATH SEASON 2: EXCLIVE FIRST LOOKBY SARAH CATHERALLNEW ON NETFLIX: SEPTEMBER 2023'S BT NEW MOVI & SHOWSBY CHRIS MURPHYFLORENCE PUGH SAYS CHRISTOPHER NOLAN “APOLOGIZED” FOR HER SMALL OPPENHEIMER ROLEBY SAVANNAH WALSHADDG TO THE HEADACHE OF FANCG AND DISTRIBUTN IS MARKETG. “THERE IS A WAY FOR PEOPLE TO FD [LGBTQ FILMS] WHO HAVE THE APPETE TO FD , BUT YOU’RE NOT GONNA GET THE MARKETG PH THAT ALL THE STUD MOVI GET BEE ’S SUCH BIG BS NOW,” BABB SAYS.
