All month long January has been FILMUARY here at Gay For Play.
This week, we're ending the month by discussing a queer cult classic, the 1999 satirical romantic comedy: But I'm a Cheerleader
And the boys are not alone this week! We're joined by dear friend of the pod Becca Rowland, who last joined us on our The Last of Us (Part 1) episode last March!
Becca's the one who recommended we watch this movie for our last episode of Filmuary, and we're so glad she did, because the three of us have so much to say about this joyful, silly, campy, gay ass movie.
But I'm a Cheerleader, directed by Jamie Babbit, stars Natasha Lyonne as Megan Bloomfield, a high school cheerleader who is sent to a conversion therapy camp to "cure" her of her homosexuality.
The three of us discuss how the movie satirizes its heavy subject matter with razor-sharp comedy and heart, and how above all else, this movie centers and celebrates queer joy in an incredibly forward-thinking movie for the turn of the millennium. It's got an incredibly diverse cast, knockout performances, and SO many good jokes. (Also, Prince Zuko and RuPaul are in it?)
We highly recommend it! Plus it's easy to view online if you wanna give it a watch before listening to our thoughts.
