Queer Love Onscreen, In All its Weird and Wonderful Forms

“Of an Age” lingers languidly over a hot summer day in Melbourne, where practically nothing of consequence happens, except the complete implosion of main character Kol’s (Elias Anton) entire worldview and self-identity. Australian filmmaker Goran Stolevski is already winning prizes in his home country for the film, which streams on Peacock beginning April 7, and it’s easy to see why.

The movie focuses mostly on just a handful of hours, as we see 18-year-old, Serbian-native Kol (short for Nikola) meet and fall — hard — for his terrible bestie’s older brother, the more worldly Adam. It’s not much of a surprise twist for anyone but Kol; many of the film’s secondary characters assume he’s gay, and Adam clearly has an inkling from the start. But Kol hasn’t faced the facts yet, for a host of reasons, not the least of which is his deep-rooted, anti-queer immigrant family. By the end of their day and night together, he’s “come of age,” as they say. Love from this point forward will never be the same again. “Of an Age” is a little sad and quite beautiful, like many such tales.

Before seeing this latest entry in cinematic queer love stories, consider this mix of other movies focused on moments that follow queer characters as they navigate what love means to them.

‘The Perks of Being a Wallflower,’ 2012

Even the current woes of actor Ezra Miller can’t overshadow the enduring message of 2012’s “The Perks of Being a Wallflower.” The film focuses primarily on Logan Lerman’s Charlie, a teenager experiencing post-traumatic stress related to childhood molestation. But it’s a subplot involving Miller’s character, Patrick, that makes this film one

of the best queer coming-of-age movies. Gorgeous, painfully earnest Patrick loves Brad, the closeted football hero. When Patrick’s father beats him after finding the two entangled in a loving embrace, Brad turns cold, Patrick suffers further physical assault from Brad’s teammates and Charlie jumps in to protect him. Ultimately, “Perks” is a story focused not just on the all-too-familiar pain of adolescent rejection within a homophobic high school culture, but on the importance of true, love-based friendship and reclaiming and actually loving the parts of ourselves that can be lost to trauma inflicted by people who are also in pain. As Charlie’s English teacher Mr. Anderson (Paul Rudd) tells him, “We accept the love we think we deserve.”

‘Moonlight,’ 2016

Few films so clearly frame the distinct eras marking a single character’s life as definitively as “Moonlight.” The film, oft-cited as one of the best films of the 21st century (period — not just in the “queer film” category), explores the main character’s life in three stages: Little (his childhood, portrayed by Alex Hibbert), Chiron (his adolescence, played by Ashton Sanders) and Black (his adulthood, portrayed by Trevante Rhodes). Throughout each stage, we see Little/Chiron/Black wrestle with the very real repercussions of being a queer Black boy and, later, man. Love looks an awful lot like pain throughout. Still, at the heart of it is his true self, which exists no matter how far he tries to run from it. In Act 2, Chiron has a sexual encounter with Kevin, who later hurts him immeasurably (physically and emotionally), but love, as it so often does, endures, even when we try to wish it away. When Kevin reappears in Act 3, everything has changed, but as is so often the case in life, “wherever you go, there you are.” Black reveals that he’s never touched another man besides Kevin and while Kevin is shocked to learn about Black’s life experiences, it’s clear that the love between the two has only grown during their years apart.

Love, Simon,’ 2018

“Love, Simon” broke new ground as the first mainstream queer-centered rom-com to hit the big screen. By most accounts, the movie managed to maintain its charm while ticking all the expected rom and com boxes — we all knew what would probably happen within the first 15 minutes, but you couldn’t help but root for sweet Simon Spier, played by Nick Robinson. Simon is a high schooler living in the closet but, in a distinctly modern twist, has fallen in love with an anonymous stranger online. When a fellow classmate outs Simon, the moment pulls the audience out of its rom-com coma for a moment, and it’s that unexpected jolt of awkwardness that saves “Love, Simon” from fading into formulaic obscurity. Instead of playing it safe and keeping Simon’s pain on the surface, the film gets unexpectedly dark for a minute, forcing the audience to remember that this is a queer romance with accompanying challenges that just didn’t pop up in your typical ’90s Meg Ryan vehicle. Simon’s true despair in the moment when he realizes he won’t have control over his own outing makes his big kiss on the Ferris wheel that much sweeter.

‘Booksmart,’ 2019

In some ways, “Booksmart” may be the polar opposite

of “Of an Age.” While the leads are whip-smart teens headed for the Ivy League, the film is more Judd Apatow than Ingmar Bergman, brimming with high school hijinks, binge drinking (and the ensuing illtimed, iller-placed vomit) and random make-out sessions. But there’s substance here, too, and it’s Kaitlyn Dever’s lesbian character Amy that turns this one into a meaningful story about queer love between best friends. Amy’s queerness is baked into the plot, a refreshing and realistic portrayal against a seemingly modern high school backdrop. No one’s screaming “dyke” at her in the hall, but at the same time, no one seems to really know her, either. Partly, it’s because she’s been living in the shadow of her boisterously loving straight bestie, Beanie Feldstein’s Molly. The exploration of this relationship is at the heart of the film. Sometimes, the most loving thing to do for yourself and, even for the one you love the most, is to break free from what’s comfortable and familiar to make space to discover who you really are.

‘Ammonite,’ 2020

You could consider “Ammonite,” loosely based on historical fact, a kind of later-in-life coming-of-age story. After all, the leads, brilliantly portrayed by powerhouse actors Kate Winslet and Saoirse Ronan, are full-grown women, but for Ronan’s character, Charlotte, a queer romance is altogether new. In fact, it’s not something she likely ever expected to experience in the 1840s, when the film is set. It’s certainly not what her husband, geologist Roderick Murchison (played by James McArdle) expects when he delivers Charlotte, who is suffering from “melancholy,” to the doorstep of a fellow geologist, Winslet’s Mary Anning. Perhaps Anning can perk up Charlotte’s mood with some time in the fresh air… As the two women enjoy a whole lot more than fresh air and digging up old rocks, Charlotte comes alive, as we all tend to do when offered the chance to live as our full, real selves. Did Roderick suspect, all along? Perhaps not, but maybe his most loving act was giving Charlotte the freedom to truly live, if only for a moment in time.

Meet the Titans

Currently, the queens from “The Boulet Brothers’ Dragula: Titans” are touring the world, and on an April Tuesday night, The Boulet Brothers, Dracmorda and Swanthula, descended on Atlanta’s Center Stage, along with season favorites Melissa Befierce, HoSo Terra Toma, and the winner of The Boulet Brothers’ Dragula: Titans, Victoria Elizabeth Black. David got a quick chat with the monstrous queens about the season, the tour, and what’s next for them.

HoSo, this is the second time you’re doing the tour. Has it changed for you?

HoSo: I’m so grateful to be doing it again. It’s pretty much similar, but this time, I get to do it with people I have known for a little bit longer, so it’s more chill.

I imagine the show prepares you for the tour, right?

Victoria: That’s what the season prepares you for, really. You learn how to roll with the punches, which truly prepares you for something like this.

Melissa: Especially with a season like this!

So what was your favorite moment from the season?

Victoria: Well, besides winning (laughs) getting crowned in Orlando, the energy was amazing and what we had all been waiting for. And from that point of winning, people have just been so sweet and amazing, and I couldn’t be happier than that.

HoSo: For me, it was just doing the tour again. After the filming and after Titans airing, I got to do an exhibition of my work back home in Seoul, which was a huge milestone for me.

How is Atlanta treating you so far?

Melissa: When we first got here on Thursday, it was pretty humid. I got here from LA with a jacket on, and I stepped out, and I went, ‘Oh sh*t.

Victoria: Today is very nice, a lot less humid!

So talk a bit about your experience being on ‘Titans’? First off, congratulations to you, Victoria, for winning the season!

Victoria: Thank you! She came back from the grave, and she did kill the competition, I guess, right? It was, you know, summer camp from hell that summarizes it pretty well.

HoSo: Reality TV is always so intense, but it’s so worth it though. Afterward, you get to meet all the fans and do the tour, and it’s all worth it.

Victoria: You make so many new friends, and it’s such a great experience when you get to be creative together. And once you go on tour, it’s all love from there.

Melissa: Very that, it’s a really great experience.

Melissa: With me, it was coming back to film Titans from season one. It was such a big difference, and getting the opportunity to meet and work with this wonderful talent has just been amazing. Just being part of this whole season with sets, cameras, and mics, it’s been so much bigger. So coming back and getting to tour for real this time.

So you’re touring right now, so what’s next for each of you?

Victoria: I have a lot of creative projects in the works. Special events, things I’ve wanted to do for years – you know, spooky things! In time, you’ll see.

HoSo: I’m ready to rest for a second after doing the first tour, then filming Titans, and then touring again. But I am building towards doing my own collection of pieces and garments. I’ve grown as an artist and feel I have the platform to do it now.

Melissa: I have a little tour with Hard Candy Events coming up on May 16-23, and I’ll be back here on the East Coast doing a lot of gigs, so there’s my plug for you to come to see me again!

The Boulet Brothers’ Dragula: Titans tour continues across the US and Canada until May 12 before going to Australia in June. For upcoming shows and tickets, please visit dragulalive.com.

YOU CAN’T STOP THE BEAT

Dear DAVID

QI am 25 years old, and I quite honestly have a lot of anxiety when it comes to dating. With all the apps and the hookup culture in the gay community, it is so difficult for me to gauge whether a guy just wants a hookup or if he actually wants to get to know you. And now, so many couples are opening up their relationship, which makes it even harder to figure out what they are into because now all the lines are blurred. I really want a deeper connection with someone, but I am both a little put off and a nervous wreck at the same time–are there really no genuine guys left out there anymore?I want to break my negative thinking, and I want to find love ultimately–but how?

AIt is always challenging to put yourself out there. The first step for you is to admit that you are in- deed anxious about dating! Anx- iety is perfectly normal, but the moment you stop semi-judging yourself for having anxiety, you will be more relaxed in yourself, which could ultimately be trans- ferred to a date. Another thing you can do is to evaluate if the hookup and dating apps are hurt- ing or helping you. If you’ve had it with biased preferences and rude- ness from strangers, then take a break–apps are not the only way to meet guys! If you do feel the need for an app in your life, stay clear of the sex apps, and go for one catered more towards dating. Be honest and realistic, which is the best basis to spark the initial online conversation with someone. No matter how you meet some- one, start by communicating and get to know the person even be- fore you actually date. Many red and green flags can be hashed out that way. And it is totally okay for you to voice your concerns and fears about dating. Being open and honest about feelings and ex- pectations will create the basis for a deeper connection. Yes, dating can be time-consuming and anxi- ety-inducing, but if you put in the effort, you are much more likely to succeed. Most people ultimately want the same as you: an intimate connection with someone else that transcends just hooking up.
