Alex Ritman Elliot Page has taken aim at the notion that queer films only have a small audience. Speaking at the BFI Flare, London’s LGBTQ film festival, the actor claimed that “30% of young people identify as LGBTQ,” referring to a survey released earlier this year about Gen Z adults in the U.S. “So I’m sorry, but this is not niche.” Page was in London with his latest feature “Close to You,” which had its European premiere as the BFI Flare opening night film on Thursday.
