A Gay Old Time
This biting drama from 1975 has a lot to say about modern gay friendships
Welcome back to our queer film retrospective, “A Gay Old Time.” In this week’s column, we revisit ’75’s Fox And His Friends, an early gay film with a deep resonance for today’s very-online audience.The need and longing to belong is a cornerstone for the queer community. The promise and relief of being amongst a group of likeminded people with similar interests, hopes, fears is the fuel that has kept it running pretty much since it’s been around. However, that promise doesn’t always deliver.Sometimes, the meanest, most vicious, and most toxic relationships can come from within.
