Pariah: Celebrating the 10th Anniversary of a Queer Cinema Classic

Today we're celebrating the 10th anniversary of Pariah, a gorgeous, sweet, and important film that follows a Brooklyn teenager trying to figure out who she is both with and apart from her friends and family. Dee Rees' debut was an instant and rare classic when it premiered in 2011: beautifully written, shot, and acted. Join us in relishing how great it holds up 10 years later.  Episode transcript: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1xxtQiNuYVjMDKxqIgl2HG70UjINLzVJHxdcqgZFIgt0/edit?usp=sharing Related Links Guardian interview with Dee Rees: https://www.theguardian.com/film/2021/jul/16/dee-rees-on-her-debut-film-pariah-my-favourite-scene-is-the-dildo-scene-honestly Valerie Complex's "Revisiting Seminal LGBTQ Film Pariah": https://editorial.rottentomatoes.com/article/revisiting-seminal-lgbtq-film-pariah/ They/Them: https://www.patagonia.com/stories/they-them/video-102573.html "Finding Julia Morgan": https://99percentinvisible.org/episode/finding-julia-morgan/ --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sapphiccultureclub/message
