Godfather of the queercore movement that challenged respectability politics w/ punk defiance, LaBruce leaves no taboo unshattered in his outrageously subversive, unabashedly kinky cinematic provocations www.criterionchannel.com/collections/... @criterionchannl.bsky.social @criterion.bsky.social

Stoic NRA spokesman Charlton Heston was BOTD in 1923 & died in 2008 at 84. His screen persona was often oddly kinky: the very gay Ben-Hur (1959), where Gore Vidal famously devised a homosexual subtext & bound & battered in Planet of the Apes (1968) & The Ten Commandments (1956)

From hier: Ambiguously ambiguous gay writer & personality Gore Vidal, author of The City and the Pillar & Myra Breckinridge, was BOTD in 1925 & died in 2012 at the 86. Love her or hate her, she slyly believed there are no homosexuals, only homosexual acts. Well, she should know!

Supergay USA Southerner film critic, journalist, actor, dandy & media personality Rex Reed was BOTD in 1938 & died in 2026 at 87. A long-time film critic for The New York Observer (he was "layed off" in 2017), he was primarily known for his scathing and often inaccurate reviews

Ambiguously bisexual Indian lawyer & anti-colonialist nationalist Mahatma Gandhi was BOTD in 1869 & was assassinated in 1948 at 78. His intense relationship with German-Jewish architect & bodybuilder Hermann Kallenbach has fuelled speculation that Gandhi may have been bisexual

HBD practically perfect Julie Andrews who was BOTD in 1935, turning 91 today. The great British actress and singer won the Best Actress Oscar for her film debut in Robert Stevenson’s "Mary Poppins" (1964), then became immortal as Maria in Robert Wise’s "The Sound of Music" (1965)

Lithuanian-born Brit actor Laurence Harvey was BOTD in 1928 & died in 1973 at 45. The suave, sometimes louche, always stylish Harvey was only nominated 4 Best Actor Oscar for Clayton’s "Room at the Top" (1959), should have been 4 Frankenheimer’s "The Manchurian Candidate" (1962)
