Queer Movie Matinee 25 May: Jeffrey

Posted by Natalie

This month's film is another lighthearted one that I suspect people may not have heard of. I ran across Jeffrey (1995) last year and I found it to be a charming and offbeat examination of the psychological fallout of AIDS. It's full of gleefully expressionistic directorial choices, and it's got Patrick Stewart playing an old gay interior decorator. It's a lot of fun!

  • What: Jeffrey
  • When: 11AM on Sunday the 25th of May
  • Where: The Beacon in Columbia City, 4405 Rainier Ave S. It's about a 15 minute walk from the Columbia City station, and the 7, 9, and 50 stop right outside the door.
  • RSVP: At this link! The theater seats 48, so we shouldn't run out of space, but please RSVP nevertheless!
  • Price: If you can send $10 to @nweiz on Venmo to help keep these going, I'd appreciate it, but if you can't afford it please come anyway.

COVID precautions: Please wear a mask (N95 or better) and run an over-the-counter test day-of or the night before. If you can't afford one, Mask Bloc Seattle can probably hook you up. Outsider Comics in Fremont usually sells them at-cost as well. The theater will be selling concessions, but we ask that you eat them outdoors rather than during the film. The theater itself is not a masks-required space at other times, although we will be the first event of the day and I'll ask the person running the show to mask and test as well and I will be bringing a large portable air filter.

Hope to see you there!
