Pride Mini-Series: Early Cinema & LGBTQ in Classic Hollywood (Part One)

Episode 325

To celebrate Pride Month 2025, Sara Ciplickas hosts a special mini-series breaking down the progression of Queer cinema. In this four-part series, the team discusses different time periods, how Queer people are presented, notable figures, and films that both positively and negatively affected our perception of the LGBTQ community. For Episode One, the team discusses ‘Pre Stonewall’ cinema, from the first film all the way up until 1969.
