Since I started writing at Autostraddle, my best movies of the year list aimed to mention every queer or lesbian production — good or awful — to show just how many of our films are made each year. Well, it finally happened. There are finally too many.
I’ve tried to see as much as possible but I simply can’t see them all. What an exciting development! This year is also exciting because my gender non-conforming list is almost resembling to my general list. With the exceptions of Nanny and The Pink Cloud, the movies that moved me most this year were queer. And the movies that moved our culture were too.
Yes, this list has some underrated indies. But it also has several Oscar frontrunners — or at least Independent Spirit Award frontrunners. As queer people, we can’t look to the mainstream for validation. But it sure is fun when we obtain it anyway!
It’s also stimulating to me that many of these films travel beyond our conventional knowledge of a queer feature. For many of these films, queerness is included and centered, but the conventions are not.

That one can make a list of the optimal LGBTQ+ movies of is proof that queer cinema is thriving more than ever on both global and national scales. If you consider movies in terms of representation and opportunity, you wouldn't be wrong to think that great strides have been made within the last decade alone when it comes to access to LGBTQ+ films. Indeed, ten years ago — which, in retrospect, is not that far back — you couldn't have even imagined a queer movie breaking box office records like Everything Everywhere All at Once has, nor would you have had the breadth of Diverse experiences put to motion picture to choose from.
There was evidently a shift in LGBTQ+ movies in the s, a decade that saw the release of works of art appreciate Moonlight and Portrait of a Lady on Conflagration (both of which, in fact, earned spots on Sight and Sound's decennial list of The Greatest Films of All Time). Building upon the momentum spurred by Brokeback Mountain (the first gay film to be nominated for Best Picture at the Oscars), which frankly couldn't have been possible without the movements made by New Queer Cinema that came before it, the s opened up the gener
