Christopher Lilly

The movie is a commentary on the mistreatment of "abnormal" looking people, not "Queer" people. Why is everything about sexuality/race with you guys. Saying, "White, straight people, am I right?" isn't as insightful as you treat it as, especially coming from 2 white dudes (even if Cecil is gay)

typical one of the movies I really want to hear them talk about, and it won't even play or download.

Y'all need a woman on this show if you want to talk about how well a film represents gender issues. Or just want women to enjoy the show. Ideally someone knowledgeable about film.
