The past few weeks I’ve had the immense pleasure of revisiting so many of my favorite movies about gay men for this list I made with Kayla and Drew, all of which have aged at various levels of goodness. So much of The Birdcage did not age well, but so much of it is simply timeless and an utter delight. Perhaps you agree. Perhaps you aspire to dress like a character on The Birdcage!
