9 Queer Movies from the 1990s You May Not Have Heard Of

It's New Years, which means it's time for lists. And while everyone else is doing 'top X of 2023,' I've decided to list 9 queer movies from the 1990s. Why? Because I wanna. Plus, in discussions of representation, I often see folks talk about it with a heavy focus on mainstream 'Hollywood' produced movies, which leads folks to talk as though progress has been linear. As if, in the past there was no/'bad' queer representation and now there is 'good' representation. But of course it's not that simple. Plenty of amazing queer movies were produced in the past decades...they were just indie movies and thus difficult to find in a world prior to Netflix and Mubi and whatnot. But now we have streaming services, so allow me to share some of my favorites from the before times (specifically the 1990s).

Without further ado....here is an alphabetical list of queer movies from the 90s you may not have heard of (especially if you're under 30).

--

Beautiful Thing (1996) (dir. Hettie Macdonald)

Before there was Heartstopper, there was Beautiful Thing. It's a story about two gay teens, one sporty and one very much not sporty...and about how they deal with pressure to come out and pressure to hide who they are. It's a very sweet coming of age story, really. However, unlike Heartstopper, in Beautiful Thing the economic class of the protagonists plays an important role in the story (the characters all live on a counsel estate in London). The characters stories are nearly as much about them being working class as it is about the two main character being gay. It's one of the first movies I ever saw about gay teens, and I loved it. I still get a wistful smile every time I hear Mama Cass Elliot's "Make Your Own Kind of Music." (cw for parental abuse)

--

Edward II (1991) (dir. Derek Jarman)

The real Edward II was King of England for 20 years in the 14th century. At the end of the 16th century, Christopher Marlowe wrote a play about Edward's reign and eventual downfall. In 1991, Derek Jarman streamlined Marlowe's play and brought all the homosexual subtext between Edward and Gaveston way out front. In the film, Edward II is in prison and reflects on the events which have led him to that point. The trouble begins when Edward takes the throne and brings his exiled lover, Gaveston, back to England. All around them the rest of the aristocracy (including Edward's wife) conspire to bring Gaveston down. The movie itself is anachronistic (set in 1991), with minimal sets and costume, and staged a lot like a play. A lot of the dialogue is right out of Marlowe's play, though there are some changes to the story (notably at the end). It's honestly my favorite Derek Jarman movie, and frankly one of my favorite movies, full stop. (cw for blood, animal corpses, violent death)

--

Fire (1996) (dir. Deepa Mehta)

Fire is the first film in the Elements Trilogy written and directed by Deepa Mehta. Each film in the trilogy is about different characters in India, with the connection between the three being thematic rather than plot or character. Fire is about two Indian women, Radha and Sita, who form a bond through their struggles living within a traditional "joint-family" (i.e. a family where all extended family live together and all money and resources are shared). The women in this family have very little agency and this film explores how the two main characters navigate through it. The men in this film are also repressed by the social structure in which they live, and this film spends some time looking at that as well. It's a film about queer desire between women living under patriarchy. (All the movies on this list are available on streaming services in the US, except Fire. However, I was able to find it uploaded to a random YouTube channel) (cw for someone catching on fire, brief domestic violence (a slap), and non-consensual kissing)

--

Happy Together (1997) (dir. Wong Kar-wai)

In Happy Together, two men from Hong Kong travel to Argentina and eventually get stuck there when they run out of money and are unable to return home. The relationship between these two men is very tumultuous, with a lot of arguing and breaking up and getting back together. It's one of the first movies I saw in which queer folks have, just, regular ol' relationship drama - exasperated by the regular ol' struggles of life. (i cant remember if there are any content warnings i should put here; it's been a few years since i've seen it)

--

Lilies (1996) (dir. John Greyson)

Lilies is a Canadian film in which a prisoner requests a bishop come to the prison to hear the prisoner's last confession. It quickly becomes clear, however, that the prisoners have something else in mind when they begin staging a play. It turns out the bishop and prisoner knew each other as teens, and the play is about the events in their lives that led up to the prisoner being put on trial. So you end up with a play-within-a-play (or rather a play-within-a-movie). The film weaves between the production staged in the prison and the memory of the events in a really fluid way. All the prisoners portray their characters in the 'memory' sections, which lends itself to some really great moments in the prison sections. And at the heart of this memory/story is a queer love story. (cw for parental abuse, murder, fire, and suicide)

--

The Living End (1992) (dir. Gregg Araki)

This is a film about two young gay men who are diagnosed HIV positive. Unlike more mainstream films about HIV that came before (and after), The Living End wears its anger and pain on its sleeve. The entire world is entirely fucked up, and so these two men turn to a nihilistic outlook. The acting is just okay and some of the dialog is a bit ridiculous...but what draws me to rewatch this movie is the way that it conveys the emotion of the time. It's a ball of rage manifest on film. (cw for attempted suicide, rape, murder)

--

Love is the Devil (1998) (dir. John Maybury)

One of the problems with the average biopic is that it attempts to portray a person's entire life in a single movie. Thankfully, Love is the Devil doesn't have that problem; it focuses on only 8 years of Francis Bacon's life - the time he spent with a man named George Dyer. By this point, Bacon was already an extremely famous artist (and, at least in the film, a bit of an asshole). Bacon meets Dyer as Dyer attempts to burgle Bacon's studio - and thus begins an extremely dysfunctional love affair. If you want to see Derek Jacobi and Daniel Craig portray this dysfunctional relationship, then this is the movie for you. Also, if you want to see a biopic that lets the subject of the film be portrayed as a shitty person, this is a film for you. (cw for bdsm, drug use, untreated mental illness, and suicide)

--

Orlando (1992) (dir. Sally Potter)

From right out the gate, Orlando announces its queer themes by having Quentin Crisp portray Queen Elizabeth I, and Tilda Swinton portray Orlando (a man). From the first scenes it becomes clear that gender is going to be a main theme in the movie. Orlando is a young man who will never grow old and never die. He begins life in the 1500s, during Queen Elizabeth's reign, and we see him (and later, her) throughout the centuries between then and 'present' day (1992). The film is broken into thematic chunks (poetry, politics, society, etc). In each of these chunks we see Orlando's life as it reflects the social norms of the time (especially gender norms).

--

Swoon (1992) (dir. Tom Kalin)

Like Rope (1948) and Compulsion (1959), Swoon is a film about the Leopold and Loeb murder. Unlike the earlier films, Swoon makes the gay relationship between Leopold and Loeb explicit. Their relationship in the film is fairly uneven, with Loeb being characterized as more of an explicit manipulator. Leopold, on the other hand, is driven more by wanting to please Leob. Complicating this dynamic is the way that Leopold is the one more interested in their sexual relationship. Is Loeb exchanging sex for help with his criminal activities? Or is Leopold committing crimes in order to elicit sex from Loeb? Or both...something a bit more complicated than either/or? The film, especially the latter half, eschews and lampoons the sensationalism of the reporting of the crime from the time. (cw for murder, blood (in black and white), and animal corpses)

--

Honorable mention goes to more well-known movies I didn't put on this list, such as: But I'm a Cheerleader, Velvet Goldmine, Bound, Adventures of Priscilla Queen of the Desert, The Birdcage, To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything! Julie Newmar, My Own Private Idaho, Bent...there are actually a whole lot of queer movies from the 1990s, now that I think about it.

bro I saw the ram sita post. But like the real potential lies with radhe krishna. Flute. Wooing radhe. Going to war etc etc,

dude LISTEN i totally get you. remember that scene in the cave when lwj just starts playing the guqin and it's just so powerful?? I saw this and immediately went Krishna™ bcoz just LOOK???

u r so right nd my imagination has been running wild since this hindu mythology x wangxian idea was planted in my brain.

(not to mention the fact that wwx's personality is literally the same as Krishna lmao)

also the fact tht Krishna enchants the entire world but radha enchants even him — that's literally wangxian tho????!!

[rememberkrishna]

This trio! I did so many varnish coats for this set, so they are perfect and durable! I think I've spent the past 3 weeks perfecting them! So sitting out under my gaze for so long I've gotten kinda fond of them.. especially Balaram! He looks so carefree and adorable! I could have done krsna kicking back and Balaram being earnest, but I did not.. there's so many endless variants and possibilities.. But I only have x 2 of the Balaram style dolls. Do you think I should define them as a trio, or just Krishna Balaram together? Radha can be purchased separately from the store. Welcome your voice!

NOVEMBER 5: Fire is released (1998)

On this day in 1998, the movie Fire was first released in India. The first of Deepa Mehta’s Elements trilogy and loosely based on Ismat Chughtai's 1942 story, The Quilt, it was one of the very first mainstream Bollywood movies to feature a same-gender love story.

Although it first premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival in September of 1996, Fire was not shown in India until November 5, 1998 (x).

Starring Nandita Das and Shabana Azmi, the movie features two young women named Radha and Sita who fall into a relationship with each other after becoming dissatisfied with their husbands. The two women are sisters-in-laws who live together in a traditional joint-living situation. Sita’s husband feels no love for her and constantly leaves her alone while he is out with his younger girlfriend, while Radha’s husband has come under the influence of a local preacher who has convinced him that sexual desire should be suppressed. Continually abandoned sexually and emotionally by their husbands, Radha and Sita begin an affair. The titular scene of the film is shown in the climax of the story when Radha announces to her husband that she plans to move out and start a home with Sita and her sari catches fire.

Fire became a controversial film upon its release. Although it passed India’s censorship laws, more than 200 people stormed a theater in suburban Mumbai in a December 2nd  riot and burned Fire movie posters. Multiple protests of the film rippled out from that and other theaters were forced to cancel their showing of the film. However, despite the riots and protests, many Indian film critics and gay activists praised the film for its “gutsy” portrayal of love between two women. Today in 2017, Fire is seen as one of the tenets of lesbian culture in India and remains a mainstay in the hearts of Indian women who love women.

Famous Indian Artist -Ramesh Gorjala

when monks in his temple town Sri kalahasti were worshipping the deities, Ramesh Gorjala might be rapt in attention. As an toddler, he observed the varied rituals intently, and deliberated each at the temple sculptures and the lawsuits. returned home, he might dunk his personal brush in natural dyes to relate the mythological tales. The scriptures that he read changed into snap shots that he painted. “once I commenced, I realised that many artists have drawn gods and goddesses earlier. So I commenced incorporating innumerable figures within the outlines of Hanuman or Krishna and hence integrated extraordinary tales inside the equal body,” says Gorjala, 37.

Now, the technique has grow to be his trademark. It has travelled with him from Srikalahasti to the severa international locations right here he had exhibited, from London to Hong Kong and Singapore.

Ramesh Gorjala Paintings Comprising over 50 works — canvases and wooden relief sculptures — he has added with him severa mythological testimonies intricately painted within figures. If a 7 x 6 toes Vishnu encompasses inside it the ten avatars, amongst others Matsya, Narasimha, Rama and Krishna, any other canvas has Hanuman as a Ram bhakth, who flew over Lanka to deliver Ram’s message to Sita. the two brothers Arjuna and Bheema proportion one canvas, with tales of Arjuna’s bravery and Bheem’s electricity inside their curvaceous frame. Krishna and Radha talk to every other in a work, and every other has Lakshmi seated with Ganesha.

there may be the joyous Kamadhenu too, flying across a canvas with wings attached. closing year, Gorjala had also painted the divine bovine goddess for high Minister Narendra Modi, after the political chief noticed his paintings on a card he had designed for actor Mohan Babu’s son’s wedding ceremony. on account that he desired Kamadhenu, that Gorjala describes as “a sign of prosperity, joy and happiness”, the artist painted it for him on a 6 x 3 ft canvas.

This trio! I did so many varnish coats for this set, so they are perfect and durable! I think I've spent the past 3 weeks perfecting them! So sitting out under my gaze for so long I've gotten kinda fond of them.. especially Balaram! He looks so carefree and adorable! I could have done krsna kicking back and Balaram being earnest, but I did not.. there's so many endless variants and possibilities.. But I only have x 2 of the Balaram style dolls. Do you think I should define them as a trio, or just Krishna Balaram together? Radha can be purchased separately from the store. Welcome your voice! Love Sita https://ift.tt/2OSrOV6
