Hedwig and the Angry Inch (2001) | dir. John Cameron Mitchell

[cemeterylandline]

Saw this in theaters for the first time ever & in 35mm. I remember being ten years old (renting Hedwig & Rocky Horror from Blockbuster) and having a double feature by myself in my childhood basement. I used to feel so alone as a kid. And that movies were my gateway to escape. I walked into that theater with the other 700 people there to sing every song and dance every dance and realized I’d been wrong my entire life. The freaks were/are/forever out there & I met some of them last night.

hey does anyone have that poem. about the author seeing two boys cuddling on a hotel lobby couch, where he refers to it as something like an island of safe anonymity or smth. its been 5000 years my college boyfriend had it written out and pinned to his wall

the other day a friend of a friend referred to "busting out of your abdomen like the alien from the Predator films" and I was completely caught off guard. like I guess that's - that's not wrong. the alien was. okay she was in the Predator films. well some of them. but like. she had her own. she's the alien from the Alien films. like. they have her name on them. he's not "King Kong from the Godzilla films"

[dragon-in-a-fez]

there's also a reason it's not called an "abdomenburster" but one issue at a time

[dragon-in-a-fez]

it's like when headlines refer to a famous woman via her husband. that's not "Predator's wife" she's got her own franchise!!
