He was fantastic. I can’t believe he’s gone. What a loss.”Beloved by the #Broadway community, the radiant actor #GavinCreel has died from a rare form of cancer.

He played Cornelius Hackl to my Dolly in “Hello Dolly” and I looked forward to working with him every single night. He was fantastic. I can’t believe he’s gone.

What a loss.Many queer actors have voiced their heartbreak at Creel’s passing. Among them was Cheyenne Jackson, who clearly enjoyed a deep bond with his fellow Broadway performer.“For two months I’ve been bracing myself for this day. Holding my breath.

Hoping for a miracle,” said Jackson.“Reading the outpouring of love from all who loved you brings me some comfort, but I’m still stuck in anger. I’ll get to acceptance, I know I will…but for now I’m not there. 22 years ago we met and it was an instant spark.

To start the year off with the right intentions, this week we’ll take a look at an underrated, under-seen movie from across the northern border that—even though it’s never really gotten its due diligence—occupies a niche space in the queer film canon. It’s a film with a production and a legacy that perfectly reflect the scrappiness, ingenuity, and creative spirit that has characterized our community.As we’ve discussed in this column for almost two years now, making a queer movie has never been an easy task.Subscribe to our newsletter for your front-row seat to all things entertainment with a sprinkle of everything else queer.Particularly in the early and middle decades of the last century, a myriad of obstacles would prevent our stories from being told, both within the Hollywood system and the broader culture: strict moral codes that stopped any “controversial” characters or plotlines from being portrayed, narrative conventions that limited the kind of lives and stories that could be explored, and a heavily religious and homophobic society that wasn’t ready to welcome us into their movie screens.But if it was hard to get queer movies made (and seen) in the United States—within the giant Hollywood machinery backing the productions—it was much, much more difficult in other countries.
