20 Upcoming LGBTQ+ Movies We're Looking Forward To
The LGBTQ+ community’s ties to Hollywood and cinema possess been deeply intertwined from the preliminary days of the medium. And yet, the fight for authentic representation of queer people in film continues to be a rarity (especially when it comes to high-profile movies). With the movie schedule here (and Pride Month coming up very soon!) there’s quite a scant LGBTQ+ titles to look forward to, and we’ve rounded up what to look forward to below.
Coming Soon
Honey Don’t! - August 22,
In , Ethan Coen and wife Tricia Cooke made Drive-Away Dolls, which they called the first of their planned “Lesbian B-Movie Trilogy”, which continues with this summer’s Honey Don’t. The dark comedy once again stars Margaret Qualley as a lesbian secret eye named Honey Donahue who gets embroiled in a series of strange deaths tied to a mysterious church in the movie also starring Aubrey Plaza, Charlie Noun, Billy Eichner and Chris Evans. I can’t wait for this one.

Queer Arab Films to Watch During Pride Month [Updated for ]
It&#;s June, which means it&#;s LGBTQ Pride Month! This is a day to celebrate people of all sexual orientations and genders. Here at AFMI, we are of course celebrating by watching movies. People are often surprised to learn that queer Arab films and filmmakers openly exist, but they most certainly execute and this misconception makes it all the more essential that we thank and celebrate them. To celebrate Pride, we have compiled a list of Arab films that tackle the stories and experiences of LGBTQIA people. This list is updated annually!

Obsessed with Hollywood, he dreams of studying filmmaking in America but struggles to pursue his vision, given the constraints of his life in the middle class and the horrors of war. There are several subplots take place thro
Pride Month is marked every June, when the lives of the LGBTQ+ people are celebrated, and those within the community reflect on how far they have come–and how much still needs to change.
Hollywood has been notoriously lazy in telling the stories of gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender characters, never mind those of others who name as part of the LGBTQ+ community. Netflix's catalog reflects this, with the streamer's movie collection featuring a lack of films featuring, for example, trans people. One of the few movies about a transgender character on the streamer, for example, is the oft-criticized The Danish Girl, the film from Cats director Tom Hooper, led by cisgender actor Eddie Redmayne.
Despite the Netflix catalog having some notable omissions when it comes to depicting the whole spectrum of queer life, it does contain some excellent films that contain turned LGBTQ+ stories into sublime comedy, activism-stoking tragedy and awareness-raising documentaries. Here are some of the best Netflix subscribers can verb this Pride Month.
