Chris Haigy from the We Read Movies podcast join us to talk about the very first gay film, the first same-sex kiss in a movie (during an orgy?!), the Hays Code, the Queer New Wave of cinema, and the (bad) lessons we learn from gay movies. Plus, tons and tons of queer movie recommendations if you’re looking for some new queer content to consume!
