Paris Is Burning

Will never not think about the body in the suitcase that was in the closet the whole time they were interviewing Miss Dorian

I watched this after attending the Renaissance World Tour… what a fucking film. It really shows you how far drag and the ballroom scene has come, where it started, the journey, the hardships, and how the battle is still going on. Absolute excellence.

Such and important insight and small sliver of queer culture at a time where they were relegated and cast off. You see how bright of stars there were and how they created community and culture that now we're able to see the impact on the mainstream they created.

venus i carry you in my heart every day.

Wow this is crucially important. Going to watch the outtakes and deleted scenes later. RIP Venus
