“Can I do this or do I look like some sort of gay superhero?”
Of all memories of #PatrickStewart the one of his performance in #Jeffrey is the most precious to me. I was a young queer thing in the 90s, navigating the soon-to-be (kind of) post #AIDS era, that was still quite homophobic, He was Sterling in the movie, it really meant something to me. He was an actual superhero to me IRL.
Watch Jeffrey, it's brilliant, hilarious, uplifting, the cast is implausibly great.
