Episode 3 - Bend It Like Beckham
Update: 2024-06-17
Description
In this episode we learn why Bend It Like Beckham is a modern classic and why it has such a massive queer fanbase. We had to take our own shot at queering up this delightful coming-of-age classic - and explore if there is any truth to the rumour that the film was always intended to be even more gay.
