It Goes all the Way to the Top: Motherless Brooklyn
'Motherless Brooklyn' is a 1950s whodunit made by its star, Edward Norton. Like most detective films in this setting, the cast is mostly white males (with a few notable exceptions).

A collection of two beloved gay short films. 'You Can't Curry Love' follows a handsome East Indian from London named Vikas who visits India on a work assignment and ends up falling for a local hotel clerk named Sunil. 'Performance Anxiety' follows two guys who are open-minded and gay-friendly, but embarrassed to sexually embrace one another and risk seeming vulnerable or overly-excited.

Dune has stunning visuals, a striking soundtrack, and great performances. But it has issues everywhere from its pacing, to its story, to its diverse representation.
'The Lost Daughter' doesn't paint over the choices Leda and Nina make as mothers as right or wrong but examines the messy in-between.
If you identify as part of the queer community, or if you love old school slasher flicks, you will love this movie.
An aspect of She-Ra that I find refreshing is even though a large portion of the cast is on the LGBTQ+ Spectrum, being gay is never mentioned. While this might initially sound like a negative thing, in the show’s land of Etheria being on the gay spectrum is shown to be so common and normalized that straight isn’t the default. As much as there is to appreciate about narratives revolving around the obstacles that may come from being non-heteronormative, it’s nice to get immersed in a world where no one bats an eye at all to any sort of differing identity.
