February's Mystery Movie

There was some confusion at the Trylon about what we were playing this month, but we'll be playing the movie we picked out for January in March, because it's MUH BIRTHDAY MONTH!! (And on my actual birthday!)

This month's theme: Wildcard baby!

Hints: This month's movie will be, by far, our oldest movie screened to date. It's also dripping with Hollywood legends in their heyday, including an actor who was featured in another movie we screened very recently. It's also an excellent representation of how older generations have always been more progressive than they're given credit for by current conservative of all eras. That is to say this movie, not unlike me, is queer as fuck.

Content Warnings: One character in this month's movie is mute, but the term this movie uses for that condition is "dumb". Later another character uses the same term to disparage her own intelligence. 

Mutual Aid Suggestion: Each month we suggest a way to participate in mutual aid, and this month's suggestion is one we suggested a couple months back, but this time it's because our federal government is ok with letting a pandemic thin us out a bit. (And if you think I'm being paranoid, just look at what they let the AIDs crisis do to gay men.) Wear a mask. Wearing a mask decreases the spread of most of our socially-communicable diseases and that directly impacts our disabled community members, our working-poor community members, our "customer-facing" community members, our elder community members, our immune compromised community members, our medical care working community members, as well as ourselves and our own families and friends. If you're out in public, wear a mask. Easy breezy, and effective as fuck.
