FROM INDIE QUEER CINEMA TO THE HOLLYWOOD MAINSTREAM, THE PINK LENS PUTS THE DEPICTION OF LGBT+ PEOPLE IN CINEMA IN THE UK UNDER THE MICROSCOPE.
PINK COMEDIES
TOP 10 LGBT+ COMEDIES
The Hollywood remake of the amazing 70s comedy La Cage Aux Folles, this is a camp and catty battle of wits between drama queens, bitches and bigots, cannon-balling through witty dialogue and larger-than-life explosive scenes. With Robin Williams at the height of his fame and his talents, this madcap comedy is a hilarious and riotous rollercoaster ride that accepts Gay Culture at its most exaggerated, with its campery played for laughs, but not the butt of its jokes. And Nathan Lane is absolutely divine here.
