Periodically I go through and add a bunch of titles onto the LGBT Movie and drama list, either with new things that I’ve found or entries which have been suggested by readers. I was just adding them, but, well, that doesn’t make sense, how will you know when I update? So, from here on out, I’ll do a little post for you with the new additions.
(If you haven’t visited the LGBT page, basically, I list the title, put in the synopsis, put in whether it’s gay, lesbian, or trans, whether it’s a main storyline or if it’s a side story, and, when possible put in a hint as to the end. Finally, if I’ve seen the drama, I give a few words of opinion.)
