    Description

    Jordan and Brooke are joined by writer Laura Venning (Little White Lies) to discuss Jane Campion's 2021 powerhouse of a film. They talk the genius of Benedict Cumberbatch's casting, Thomas Savage's legacy, what went wrong with this film's awards run, the cultural cachet of queer Westerns, and that seeing the dog does, in fact, make you gay.Follow us on Twitter!Follow Laura on Twitter!

    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.
