Since 22 of the gayest gay movies only scratches the surface, The A.V. Club would be loath to neglect the titles that provide, while perhaps not top-to-bottom (no pun intended) queer happiness, then at least moments of queer affirmation. Seminal LGBTQ+ classics Moonlight, Carol, Tangerine, Weekend, Edge Of Seventeen, or The Kids Are All Right may be considered dramas or complicated dramedies, but can nevertheless raise your spirits this Pride. The same could be said for 1990’s game-changing documentary on ballroom culture Paris Is Burning, highlighting the joys as well as the cost of living one’s truth. Queer comedies featuring real-life characters include The Favourite, I Love You Phillip Morris, and Rocketman. Those who find joy in the irreverent genre that is horror film shouldn’t miss Jennifer’s Body, Hellbent, or even Elvira: Mistress Of The Dark. And hey, if you’ve seen all the above and are looking for queer filmmaking that’s modern and new, the upcoming Fire Island fits the bill this Pride Month. [Jack Smart]
