In this episode we discuss the 2003 gay Mormon romcom, Latter Days. Hear all about how Joseph Gordon-Levitt is bad at being a missionary, why the Mormon God isn't angry He's just disappointed, and how Teddy's own personal religious trauma from being gay and raised Mormon colors her experience of this film. A couple notes: Teddy would like to apologize for the bad quality of her audio (there was something wrong with her microphone. She would also like to apologize profusely for saying Mel Gibson when she meant Mel Brooks. Theme music is Queer Things by Ruth Wallis Follow us on twitter @CinemaGays

In this episode we discuss the 2020 gay Christmas romcom, A New York Christmas Wedding. Hear all about the ways this movie takes the "angel shows you an alternate reality" trope in a new direction, why one of the leads being bisexual really adds to the themes of the film, and they REALLY shouldn't have done that one bad plot twist. We also briefly go over all the other gay Christmas movies that have been released this year (there are more than you think), and we go on an extended tangent about our own personal cultural contexts for this sort of religions approach to the topics of Christmas and queerness.

In this episode we discuss the 2020 gay Bollywood romcom, Shubh Mangal Zyada Saavdhan. Although to be honest a lot of the discussion boils down to how much we love the character Kartik Singh. Other things briefly mentioned and discussed in this episode include: Happiest Season, Uncle Frank, and a bold claim about the nature of transhumanists.
