"In all she said, however open she seemed and voluptuous, there was something hidden; in all she did, however daring, there was something concealed. The clearness was only outward; within was a wandering flame." — Virginia Woolf, from The Complete Works; “Orlando: A Biography,” Photography by Michalina Woźniak

fav first watches of october 🦇🌬🍂

house of usher (1960) – a complete gothic nightmare it was so charming in that 60s celluloid feel. and vincent price was serving cunt like his life depended on it. the red wax of the candles and the house falling apart it was all so gorgeous and moody

orlando, my political biography (2023) – it was. so beautiful. just so beautiful and honest. and its love for all trans people and all of their similarities and differences and experiences and loves. I love paul b preciado and really need to read more of his stuff. and it was also an essay on the role of medical institutions and political institutions on the construction of gender like ugh it was just so good.

all of us strangers – ohhhhh my god. when you're a lonely little child you will always be lonely and it grows around you it fills your entire life. andrew scott and paul mescal are different generations of gay men and they had different experiences but they're still so lonely. and they find eachother despite it. and when andrew scott comes out to his mom and she says "they say it's a very lonely life" and he answers "well it isn't anymore. at least it's not supposed to be" because it still is to himmmm. I can't say anything else bc I think it might be spoilers but it was so insanity-inducing and so heartbreaking

gothic (1986) – I love mary shelley and I love the romantics and this was so crazy. completely gothic in the sense that it was perverted and cruel and insane. literally when your circle small but all yall crazy

audition (1999) – yayyyyy crazy women 🥰 kind of slow to get into but the last half hour is insanely rewarding and I haven't stopped thinking abt it since. AND! there's a my chemical romance music video about it so <3
