Two sex symbols & a gay author brought this explosively controversial story to the big screen
Welcome back to our queer film retrospective, “A Gay Old Time.” As we approach the end of June, we continue our special Pride series in which we cover a movie highlighting a different letter of the LGBTQ+ acronym all month long. This week, we dive into the all-important “T” with 1970’s Myra Breckinridge, a controversial adaptation of a controversial novel that may not be the best example of positive representation for a community that has been starved of it for so long.Week by week in this column we step back in time and look at various forms of queer representation throughout Hollywood history.
