Stonewall Museum and OutSFL monthly film series continues.
Each month alternates between a classic LGBTQ film and an LGBTQ camp classic from a list compiled by the OutSFL staff of films that all LGBTQ people should see. OutSFL’s resident film critic and Rotten Tomatoes reviewer Gregg Shapiro selects the classic LGBTQ films, while our Arts & Culture Editor Rick Karlin chooses camp classics that every LGBTQ person should see. The films begin at 6:30 p.m. Admission is free, but you must reserve a spot by emailing
Uncle Howard - March 12
Shapiro introduces this intertwining tale of past and present in a Sundance award-winning documentary from 2016, which rediscovers NYC filmmaker Howard Brookner and his body of work, unveiled by his nephew, after being buried in William S. Burroughs' bunker for over 30 years.
Funny Lady - April 10
Karlin introduces this unintentionally campy sequel to the 1968 film “Funny Girl.” The film stars Barbra Streisand, James Caan, Omar Sharif, Roddy McDowall, and Ben Vereen. It is a highly fictionalized account of the later life and career of comedienne Fanny Brice and her marriage to songwriter and impresario Billy Rose (Caan). The primary score was by John Kander and Fred Ebb.
Billy’s Hollywood Screen Kiss - May 8
Shapiro introduces this 1998 romantic comedy written and directed by Tommy O'Haver, starring Sean P. Hayes. The film was a breakthrough performance for Hayes, who would go on to gain worldwide fame for his portraying Jack McFarland on the hit television series “Will & Grace.” In the film, Hayes plays a photographer in Los Angeles, who has had little artistic success and much romantic frustration. He comes up with the idea of recreating iconic screen kisses from Hollywood movies.
Mahogany - June 11
Introduced by Karlin, this 1975 film, directed by Berry Gordy and produced by Motown Productions, is the height of camp. Motown founder Gordy took over the film direction after firing British filmmaker Tony Richardson. Diana Ross plays Tracy Chambers, a struggling fashion design student who rises to become a top model, then a popular fashion designer in Rome. The soundtrack included the single "Theme from Mahogany (Do You Know Where You're Going To)".
