The transformist artist Juan Moreno, to put it another way, a gypsy from Sacromonte, is struggling at an extraordinary vital crossroads. He had always hated Federico García Lorca for his stereotypical view of gypsies, but he has had a strange dream that revolves around his poem Son de Negros en Cuba. From this experience he begins to feel inexplicably identified with the poet's work… So much so that he ends up acquiring a new and explosive personality: that of Juana la Lorca. With this nom de guerre, he will embark on a path of no return full of incidents, but also of shocking revelations that will shed light on the life and death of Federico García Lorca. With this singular and irreverent work, Valeriano López humorously vindicates the homosexual dimension of the most rebellious Federico García Lorca, at the same time he makes a ruthless satire of Lorca's clichés and of the "industry" built on the poet's legacy.
The “gay best friend”, an age-old trope, has been done in countless films and television series.

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.

Welcome to Ryan Reynold's world. Dwyane Johnson, Gal Gadot and us are just living in it. Is he acting? I think he is, it's just the question of it's believable anymore.
The Super Mario Galaxy Movie comes on the heels of its billion-dollar grossing predecessor, and seeks to do absolutely nothing other than repeat its success. In this, the film is eminently effective. If you have seen the previous film, you can expect something extremely similar in this package. That is, a barrage of references to Nintendo intellectual property wrapped in a plot that provides the thinnest layer of emotional payoff for the characters.
