seriously? the critique from the new york times is “it insists upon itself”?
“La Bola Negra,” a new film by Javier Ambrossi and Javier Calvo, dramatizes gay repression and liberation across three interconnected stories. At first, the year is 1937 and viewers are thrust deep into the Spanish Civil War, where a Nationalist soldier and a wounded Republican freedom fighter exchange furtive glances. By the end, it’s 2017, and a Madrid-based historian need only look to Grindr to satisfy an urge. The movie “wants to be a sweeping historical epic of gay longing—a film about what it means to be a man who desires other men in times of war and peace,” Justin Chang writes. Instead, the directors have produced “a film that insists, arrogantly and aggressively, on its own monumentality”. Even compelling performances from Glenn Close, Penélope Cruz, and Lola Dueñas fail to rescue the extravagantly overwrought film. Read Chang's full review: newyorker.com/culture/the-cu…
Juding actors from the golden era of Hollywood by todays standards seem like such a futile exercise. I’m sure you would also think that actors during the Shakesperean era were overacting if you saw them performing today. Each era has it’s own style
why do people assume it’s only gay men behind those nasty stan accounts. it’s a lot of girls too lol
“real rock fans” and goes on to list the most basic billboard top 40 guitar music on the planet. most of what you named is barely rock either

Cynthia Erivo calls out the public’s obsession over her friendship with Ariana Grande during the ‘Wicked’ press tour:
“There was this weird sort of, what’s the word I’m looking for … annoyance … at the fact that two women could actually be friends. Like, why are they friends? Why are they connected? There must be something wrong with them. Why are they showing emotion? How dare they cry? And how dare they laugh? And how dare they be emotive and alive? It’s a double-edged sword. Because if we were dead behind the eyes and showing no emotion, there would have been something else to say about it. I wish there was someone who could have been like, ‘Right, this is the proper balance of emotion that you should show. Don’t show this. Don’t show that. Just this amount.’”
I wanted to be there so bad
