Omg, this is a good one, Season 2 out today I think. I’ll let you read the review, it’s great. You’ll laugh, you’ll cringe…

“One of the first establishing shots in the show is of garbage cans with ACAB spray painted on them, which sets up an appropriately complex frame for the main character cops out of the gate. The show begins with two Indigenous teenage girls walking down a dark road to a deserted beach with exactly the kind of foreboding cinematography and musical score you’d expect at the beginning of a crime series. It plays with the expectation, so tragically grounded in the real-life experiences of missing and murdered Indigenous women, that one of them will be the victim, but instead Tammy Hampson (Leonie Whyman) trips over the dead naked guy, drops her cigarette, and sets his pubic hair on fire. It really sets the tone for the show.”

Pillion is a coming-of-age tale as much as a love story. Through Ray, Colin makes contact with an entirely new plane of existence. He learns that being a sub, for him, is a style of being that gives him greater community, self-knowledge, and sexual satisfaction.

More bitching on the queer word having changed its meaning.

Queer filmmfestivals: Submit your queer content films. Make sure it is clearly recognisable (aka non binary people looking cis are not performative nor interesting enough, please fuck off). Pay submisssion fees even if your project has no budget. We don't pay screening fees and we use public and private funding and submission fees to pay ourselves and some production partners with market fees. Because community labor has to be paid (our labor, ofc, but we dont have enough to pay the artists, or if, very symbolic fees).

What happened to queer being something we do instead of an identity, and what happened to lets get rid of extractivism and of unequal distribution of ressources?

honey, that queer l or even feminist label is quite misplaced. And people accept it, including the queer community/ies.

Interregnum interviews Dr Jacob Engelberg on his new book, Cinemas of Bisexual Transgression. The book argues that the way we look at queer film centres the gay/straight binary and considers what happens when bisexuality breaks the rules.

A lot to reflect on after watching 4th Man Out last night. Loved the characters, but the story is very much what happens to a mostly straight friend group when one of them comes out. Less main character energy, more ensemble. Adam's circle was close, longstanding, and very present for him.That part felt unrelatable. I came out at 51 without a close in-person guy friend group.

(Stop here if you don't want any spoilers.)

Before I watched “I Saw the TV Glow,” I had heard only that it was about teenagers who are supernaturally drawn into a TV show and that the film was trans. Sounded perfect for me. I also liked that it’s a psychologically driven film that feels horror-adjacent.

Although fear no longer follows us like a shadow in many places, those hidden laws of survival haven’t completely vanished. They have simply evolved into new forms.
South Korean director Park Joon-ho’s debut feature film carves one such secret coordinate of Seoul’s queer scene directly into its title: “3670.”
