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 Bankhead or even Greta Garbo

Tallulah was fascinating.

The late great Hong Kong legend Leslie Cheung comes to mind.

There's already been one movie about Turing (BREAKING THE CODE

)
and another one (THE IMITATION GAME) is on the way:

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.

I wouldn't mind seeing a biopic of Roy Cohn.

Lopsided55 — 11 years ago(June 13, 2014 05:09 PM)

HBO's Angels in America gives you the best Roy Cohn you're going to get.
I want a TV series about Christopher Marlowe's adventures being a spy for Queen Elizabeth, amidst shagging blokes, writing plays and heretical tomes, and his mysterious death.

telegramsam23 — 11 years ago(June 13, 2014 07:28 PM)

I'm not as interested in 80s Roy Cohn. I'd prefer something in the McCarthy era.

Edith Windsor and Thea Spyer.
I don't really know how interesting their lives were, but the photos of them together as a young couple are so beautiful and moving.
Of course a movie could tie in overturning DOMA, but I'd like to learn from the movie how life was for a lesbian couple back when they met.

some of those closeted stars from the Golden Age of Hollywood previously listed
Ed Koch

Barbara Jordan
Gertrude Stein (& Alice Toklas)

blindvias-071407 — 11 years ago(January 02, 2015 07:07 PM)

The Ralph Nader film would be quite interesting since he hasn't self identified as gay. Where did you find anything reporting about his sexual orientation?

[fgadmin]

eolloe — 11 years ago(January 03, 2015 02:44 PM)

Exactly. That info probably won't come out until after he is in the grave. And even then there may be doubters.*
Koch (famous former mayor of New York) never self-identified as gay either.
It's sad how fervently some people want to deny that famous people they admire might have been gay (or bi). Just take Tchaikovsky, or Vladimir Horowitz, for example.
