The Queer Quadrant
by The Queer Quadrant
Four-quadrant films are movies designed to appeal to the biggest, widest audience possible. In the process, they can often leave out a lot of LGBTQ+ representation – but end up loaded with subtext. In The Queer Quadrant, hosts Brooke Solomon and Jordan Gustafson examine cinema in all its cultural contexts, and explore why your favorite four-quadrant blockbuster is maybe…not as straight as you think it is.

RocknRolla with Emma Logsdon

The Devil Wears Prada 2
Gird your loins! For this delightful sequel, we return to the hallowed halls of Runway, which have gone...digital?
