ileolai:happy pride, here is the entire summary of what it means to be ‘’visibly queer’’ to me, watch the Birdcage This scene kills me because Albert is fucking trying. For his partner. For his son. And they give him nothing in this scene. No support at all. His effort here at passing, if that’s the right word, works. It’s a hard scene to watch for me. We’re rooting for him but we’re not in that room, and he can’t hear us tell him he is successful in this effort and he is good for trying. Maybe it’s the wrong tactic for 2021, to be Not Albert. But for 1996 – for ALBERT in 1996 – it’s a Herculean effort counter to every default movement, and he deserves more than he’s getting here from the two people who comprise his world. “But you keep it all inside,” Armand said in rehearsal. Albert is. Because he loves his family, and they didn’t think he could do it. -- source link
