One LGBT person I always wanted to see her life being made into a movie is the lesbian writer and salon host Natalie Clifford Barney. Her life would make one hell of a movie, with all the artistic scenario of her literary salon in Paris and her relationship with the poet Renée Vivien.
Other movies I would like to see would be a movie about the Danish writer Hans Christian Andersen showing his relationship with the ballet dancer Harald Scharff and a movie about the Irish writer Oscar Wilde, focusing on his love affairs and his arrest and trial for homosexuality. I am not sure there is a good movie about Oscar Wilde.

I would love to see a biopic about Harris Glenn Milstead (Divine), preferably starring Matt Lucas from Little Britain.
Also, I thought the Oscar Wilde movie with Stephen Fry was pretty good, though I haven't seen it in over a decade.
I am the sod-off shotgun.

Yes. I love Divine. Larger than life. Divine loved spaghetti.

Elagabalus, a rather eccentric and decadent teenaged bisexual and transgender Roman Emperor. A film about "him" would be a hoot. Would have tons of sex in it because "he" used to get all dolled up and prostitute "himself" and give blowjobs to soldiers.

Ahh, I love Elagabalus !! I always mention him as the first transgender person recorded in history when I list people in history who were transgender to prove that transgenderism has always been around mankind, along with the Chevalier D'Eon and Lili Elbe.

Any silent or early soundie movie lgbt people. In particular Patsy Kelly, Janet Gaynor, Margaret Lindsey and William Haines.
There's more I'd like to see a movie on their lives, but I can't think of them right now.

Farley Granger and Sal Mineo would be two biopics I'd really be interested in seeing.

Whose idea was it for the word "Lisp" to have an "S" in it?

Tallulah was fascinating.

Anthony Perkins!!!!!!
And Montgomery Clift, and apparently there is already a movie planned about his life with Matt Bomer playing Monty but I'm not quite sure if he's the right one for the job.
