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.

The Queer Quadrant
Jordan and Brooke are rejoined by Roxana Hadadi (Vulture) for Lorene Scafaria's 2019 masterpiece – yes, masterpiece! There is directorial style! There are great needle drops! There is JLo in an incredible fur coat! We discuss why this movie wasn't given the awards season treatment, the very legitimate Ramona x Destiny ship, recent "Netflix-ifciation" of A-list actors, ethics of scamming Wall Street finance bros, and some Juicy Couture archive pulls.
