The Little Pageant That Could Ratings & Reviews

I lowkey didn’t even want to log this in because I didn’t want to put that ugly AI poster on my profile. I seriously cannot fathom why they would tarnish this well made and pretty emotional documentary by slapping ugly AI on the poster. That’s the first thing you see and it’s not a good impression. Anyway, this was a good documentary. Very fascinating and it was genuinely so moving to see all the clips of all the incredible artists and beautiful human beings just showcasing their light and spreading queer joy. The last ten minutes made me cry.
