We double-checked the numbers, it got beat out by three votes. Then we announced the top 10 on our Facebook page in alphabetical order and let you vote one last time to decide the top 10 order.Īnd surprise, Brokeback Mountain was not the number one movie.
So, after voting closed we sorted through the nearly 35,000 nominations (representing over 600 individual film titles) to identify your top 100 favorite gay films. And we wanted to break out gay documentaries onto their own list (You’ll find the Top 25 Greatest Gay Documentaries results here.) We figured there were finally enough quality gay films to justify the expansion. We also wanted to expand our list to 100 from the top 50 we had done previously. We wanted to see how your list of favorites had changed. We conducted a similar poll several years ago, but a lot has happened culturally since then, and a number of worthy movies of gay interest have been released. A few weeks ago we asked readers to submit up to ten of their favorite films by write-in vote. Frankly, one that surprised the hell out of us here.īut before we get to that, an introduction.
This list of the Top 100 Greatest Gay Movies is probably going to generate some howls of protest thanks to a rather major upset in the rankings. There’s a major upset in the rankings!īrace yourselves.
Our readers name their favorite gay films.
