Can you be a gay actor, a man of faith, and a bold truth-teller in an industry that often expects you to pick one? This week, John Corella sits down with actor and LGBTQ+ activist Danny Franzese, best known as Damian in Mean Girls. Danny shares what it was like to play an openly gay character while still closeted in real life, and how that disconnect shaped his early career. The conversation pulls back the curtain on what many actors face behind the scenes, especially when their identity challenges what the industry expects or understands. Danny also introduces a less-talked-about influence in his journey: the Alexander Technique. For him, it wasn't just a posture tool. It became a way to find alignment, physically and emotionally. How do you carry yourself when no one's watching? Can you feel present in your own skin, even in chaos? Danny makes a case for the connection between movement, intention, and inner peace. John and Danny also discuss the ongoing debate around representation in the media. Should gay roles be reserved for gay actors? What does authentic storytelling really require, and who gets to tell which stories? This episode is part personal story, part thoughtful critique, and part reminder that the body, the voice, and the truth all deserve space. Danny brings depth, humor, and honesty to a conversation that speaks to anyone who's ever wondered whether they're “too much” to be fully seen.

Hollywood has long been a place of glamour and storytelling, but its history with LGBTQ+ representation is complex and ever-evolving. Film critic Alonso Duralde dives deep into this fascinating world in his new book, Hollywood Pride: A Celebration of LGBTQ+ Representation and Perseverance in Film. Hollywood Pride is a history of queer Hollywood in chronological order, starting from the very beginnings of cinema in 1895 and journeying all the way to 2022. It's not just about the movies themselves; Alonso delves into the lives of the artists – actors, directors, writers, and more – who have shaped Hollywood, both on and off screen. "The book is a look at how queer history evolved over those decades, off the screen and in society," Alonso explains. "And then how that was reflected in the movies." Each chapter focuses on a specific period, highlighting the key LGBTQ+ figures and films of that era. It explores not only positive portrayals but also the coded messages and subtext that emerged during times of censorship, like the Hays Code era. Alonso argues that even negative portrayals hold certain significance. "Even negative inclusion is at least visibility and a reminder that we exist," he says. "It's not the greatest reminder, but it's better than nothing." The book examines Alfred Hitchcock's films, some of which are very homophobic, but still offer a glimpse of LGBTQ+ characters.There are also unexpected gems celebrated in the book, such as 1999's The Mummy, a film that has resonated with the bisexual community. By the 1970's, Dog Day Afternoon and Midnight Cowboy could more openly deal with gay characters, if not in the best light. Alonso especially enjoyed writing about Salome, Caged, I Am a Fugitive from a Chain Gang, Ed Wood's Glen or Glenda, and by the 1990's, the era of the New Queer Cinema movement. While celebrating the strides made in LGBTQ+ representation, Alonso acknowledges there are still many stories waiting to be told. "It feels like I was skimming the surface of a very deep topic," he says. But even a glimpse into this rich history is a valuable step forward, offering a deeper understanding of LGBTQ+ experiences in cinema and beyond.

On this episode of On the Rocks, Pride season continues as we go to the movies with film critic/podcaster/writer Alonso Duralde as we talk about his love of movies, queer representation in film, the future of queer cinema, tentpole movies we should all watch, our love of divas, his new book Hollywood Pride: A Celebration of LGBTQ+ Representation and Perseverance in Film, and more! ...with host Alexander Rodriguez.

Alonso Duralde joins me to talk about his new book, 'Hollywood Pride: A Celebration of LGBTQ+ Representation and Perseverance in Film'. Published in May 2024, 'Hollywood Pride' presents a history of film from the dawn of cinema to the "pansy craze" of the 1930s and the New Queer Cinema of the 1990s, all the way up to today. Illustrated with more than 175 colour and black-and-white images, 'Hollywood Pride' points to the bright future of LGBTQ+ representation in cinema, by revealing the story of the community's inclusion and erasure, its visibility and invisibility, and its triumphs and tragedies. ................ Time stamps: 4:00 I ask Alonso about the formative media that inspired his career in journalism 8:42 "Tell me about how your career has developed..." 9:00 Alonso has worked as a film festival programmer 11:00 Alonso tells me about his other books, including books on Christmas movies 11:19 I ask Alonso about his work with Turner Classic Movies (TCM) 14:52 Queer representation in film, especially in the 1990s (as in 'Mrs. Doubtfire'; 'Four Weddings and a Funeral', etc.) 17:41 "What's valuable about a book like this is that it's a reminder that [inclusion] didn't all just happen... they could take it all away real quick..." 18:47 Rock Hudson, Anthony Perkins and Tab Hunter's happy ending 20:38 Alonso on closeted famous Hollywood stars 21:27 Claudette Colbert and Marlene Dietrich ride an amusement park slide at a birthday party for Carole Lombard, as you do 22:00 The end of Pre-Code American cinema 24:08 Home media as a "Godsend" for access to LBGTQ+ films 27:14 'Brokeback Mountain' and the mid-2000s 32:42 Same-sex marriage in the US and Canada 37:00 Metrosexual culture in the 2000s: "guyliner", guys kissing, etc. 39:20 Reality TV and LGBTQ+ representation 41:06 Alonso tells me about interviewing Heath Ledger for The Advocate on a junket at the Toronto International Film Festival 45:14 "'Brokeback Mountain' is hardly Jane Austen, but it is [about] people living in a society that's being rather proscriptive about who you are allowed to love and not allowed..." 46:30 I put Alonso on the spot and ask him about his favourite film in 'Hollywood Pride' 48:50 "What advice would you give your teenage self today?" ................

Dennis is joined via Zoom by film critic Alonso Duralde to discuss his new coffee table book Hollywood Pride: A Celebration of LGBTQ+ Representation and Perseverance In Film. It's a beautifully written and designed book about at the history of queer people in the movies, both in front of the camera and behind the scenes. Alonso talks about the artists and films that weren't on his radar before he began his research and shares insights about some of the films in the book like including Prick Up Your Ears, Philadelphia, Brokeback Mountain, Parting Glances, Longtime Companion and Making Love. He also talks about what it's like to be the busiest gay in film criticism with five regular podcasts--Linoleum Knife (with his husband, film critic Dave White), Breakfast All Day, Maximum Film, Deck the Hallmark and the just-launched The Film Library. Other topics include: the gay cinematographer that shot Rocky, why queer millennials love The Mummy, how he cries more watching movies than he does in real life, his seeming unflappability, the 2016 surprise party for Dennis that Alonso attended, getting recognized on the street and the movie that made him cry so hard he had to go to the lobby to pull himself together. Following the interview with Alonso, there's also a short interview with comedian Jim David who appears in the new Netflix documentary Outstanding.
The new book “Hollywood Pride” is an encyclopedia of queer artists on-screen and behind the camera, spanning the late 1800s to today. Author Alonso Duralde gives a walkthrough. For the first time in nearly 40 years, the Commission on Presidential Debates is not setting the rules of engagement for candidates. In Thursday’s debate, CNN will control the guidelines. A majority of Supreme Court justices would reinstate a lower-court ruling that paused Idaho’s near-total abortion ban, suggested a document posted to the court’s website.

Olivia has been globe-trotting (nation-trotting?) nearly as much as Nicole these days, but she has had time to binge season 3 of Regency-era sex-sation Bridgerton (and do her laundry). Nicole is still on a thriller book-kick, devouring Nerves of Steel about pilot Tammie Jo Shults and her daring emergency landing, and she and Shauna both consumed some Glen Powell content recently. Somehow that leads to a vote on which anthropormorphic rodent is the hottest, and sorry to say, but Glen came in last place. Then it's on to the heart of this episode: celebrating Pride Month while looking back at the highs and lows of how pop culture has represented members of the LGBTQ community. From the ground-breaking 1968 movie The Queen to the 1990s and the increasing acceptance of gay characters on television to recent high profile movies like Moonlight, the Junkies talk about how much representation has increased - and how there is still so much room for improvement.

And now, he's released his brand new book published by TCM entitled, “Hollywood Pride: A Celebration of LGBTQ+ Representation and Perseverance in Film”. This meticulously researched and beautifully written book reveals the fascinating and often suppressed history of the evolution of queer culture on film, spanning from the dawn of cinema, through the “pansy craze” of the 1930s, the Red Scare of the ‘50s, the New Queer Cinema of the ‘90s, all the way up to today, chronicling the evolution of LGBTQ+ storytelling.

This week we welcome our podbrother Danny Perez from the Oreja Peluda podcast, a show about masculinities in Latin America. This is the last episode in our music series and we're sad it's over. BUT Remoy likes music now, AND we're wrapping it up with some over-the-top performance with glam rock!This subgenre of rock emerged in 1960s England and made its way to the States in all its grandiosity. It was characterized by loud makeup and outfits, and challenged typical masculine presentation; that doesn't mean it was inclusive. Samantha shares some glam rock history, including the story behind Ziggy Stardust and the name Queen. Hint: it's all about gender performance.This era is often remembered as purely accepting of these artists on and offstage, she explains why, between Ziggy Stardust and Freddie Mercury, glam rock was only accepting of gender and sexual fluidity onstage. Danny offers his thoughts on MASKulinity and how it shows up in rock performances.Glam Rock was a little different in the southern hemisphere. With tropícalia influences, Brazilian glam rock emerged in the early ‘70s. And that's when the band Secos e Molhados formed. Samantha takes us through the differences between Brazil, US, and England in their reception of glam rock artists.Nicknamed the David Bowie of Brazil, Secos e Molhados lead singer Ney Matogrosso's impact on Brazilian music is still celebrated today. Samantha paints a picture of the ‘70s dictatorship and what made a particular social group tap into Secos e Molhados.Danny offers some background on the social backdrop in South America at the time.Help us name our revamped interview segment!
