In this episode of Chaps Out Culture, host Grant Philpott is joined again by #ChapsOut guest Martin Walker. Martin shares the queer films that hit him hardest- especially watching Angels in America while still deep in the closet. He talks about how it felt to see AIDS, fear, love and identity play out on screen before he was ready to face his own truth. From the dark intensity of Cruising to the joy and chaos of The Birdcage, this is an honest conversation about being drawn to stories you don’t fully understand yet. Sometimes art figures you out before you figure yourself out.
