6 queer movies with bangin’ soundtracks
It’s funny, as much as gays love a dance floor anthem, an epic song of summer, a certified bop, queer movies aren’t exactly known for their soundtracks.
This may have something to do with the fact that big budget Hollywood films centering queer people tend to be kinda tragic (we have to die so that straights can empathize with us, obv) and queer indies are less likely to spend their limited budget on pricy music rights.
But queer cinema isn’t wholly without it’s bangin’ soundtracks. Here are six that come to mind… Two drag queens and a transwoman embark on an odyssey into the Australian outback, performing glitter drenched, disco-powered shows along the way.
How could the soundtrack to that movie be anything but fabulous? Priscilla won the Academy Award for Best Costume Design in 1995, but the film’s music was just as thrillingly campy and over-the-top!
