The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert (1994) (S2 E4)
Welcome. You’re listening to Reel Charlie Speaks, an LGBTQ podcast spin-off of the film and television review blog, Reel Charlie looking at movies and TV from a gay male perspective since 2009.
I'm your host, Philip Bahr. Each month I select a classic queer film, television series, or creator. I talk about how the subject spoke to me when I first discovered it years ago, and how its stood the test of time.
In episode 11 I explore the drag queen road trip movie, The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert. With drag queens under attack throughout the United States, it's time to look at this classic film which won the Oscar for Best Costume Design. Drag = Love.
