- 'Vita & Virginia' One of several “forbidden love period dramas” from the late 2010s (it’s a whole genre), Vita & Virginia is a fictionalized biopic of Virginia Woolf and her lover, author Vita Sackville-West.

Leave it to Paul Verhoeven — the 83-year-old Dutch filmmaker who has given us everything from Basic Instinct to Showgirls to Starship Troopers — to offer up a wildly unsubtle, hilariously camp erotic drama about... two horny nuns in 17th century Italy (oh, how I wish he'd directed House of Gucci). Based on a true story (although to a small degree, ...
Canadian filmmaker Emma Seligman made quite the mark this year with her directorial debut Shiva Baby, released in largely virtual theatres last spring (landing Seligman an HBO deal in the process). A comedy suggestively set in an era that now feels pretty much like a period piece (2019), the film follows bisexual Jewish 20-something Danielle (Rache...
While Pixar's lovely Luca got a lot of attention this year for being an allegory for the LGBTQ experience (even though the filmmakerhas stated that was not intentional), not enough seemed to be offered to Netflix's The Mitchells vs. the Machines for explicitly offering a queer character at the centre of a family-oriented animated film. What's more,...
Not to be confused with the Mahershala Ali-starring film by the same name that was just released on Apple Plus, 2021 weirdly offered two films named Swan Song. But the one I'm referencing here is directed by Todd Stephens and stars the legendary German actor Udo Kier in a career-high performance that should have received more attention (although it...
You may have heard of revered jazz musician Billy Tipton, who rose to fame in the 1940s and '50s, but it's unlikely you know the whole story behind him. Aisling Chin-Yee and Chase Joynt's documentary No Ordinary Man thoughtfully aims to change that for viewers by reimagining Tipton's narrative through a diverse group of contemporary trans performer...
Are Barb and Star bisexual? It's a little ambiguous, though they definitely enjoyed one another during a threesome and had no regrets about. IsBarb and Star Go To Vista Del Mar, the film starring and written by Kirsten Wiig and Annie Mumolo (who wrote Bridesmaids together) and centred on the pair, one of the most absurd and delightful gonzo comedie...
In 1929, Nella Larsen wrote Passing, a book centred on the reunion of two Black childhood friends, Irene and Clare. One "passes" as white (even to her husband); the other lives her life as a Black woman. Since its release, scholars have widely identified a lesbian subtext which could not have been made explicit by Larson as an author at the time, o...
Danish filmmaker Jonas Poher Rasmussen's Flee is a singular, visceral achievement. The documentary weaves together beautiful animation with archival footage to tell the true story of Amin (a pseudonym), a 36-year-old academic hiding a painful past he has kept secret for 20 years — even from his soon-to-be-husband. As he finally tells his story to t...
One of my favourite things about 2021 was that Spike Lee's jury at the Cannes Film Festival decided to award Julia Ducournau's brilliantly batshit body horror film Titane their coveted Palme D'Or, making Ducournau the second woman in the festival's history to win the prize (they also did so in an accidentally unprecedented manner). It elevated a fi...
Before Titane, the only female-directed film to win the Palme d'Or was Jane Campion's The Piano back in 1993. So how fitting that a few months after Titane joined it, Campion herself would confirm herself as one of her generation's greatest filmmakers with her first film in over a decade: the very queer, anti-Western masterpiece The Power of the Do...
