Every film on this list is a triumph of cinema. A stunning blend of story, score, and cinematography that elevated movie-making to new artistic heights. While critics might call them the best films of all time, they could have been better… if only they had been gayer. From best friends who could have been something more to villains who are a little too obsessed with the heroes they supposedly hate, these are 10 movie characters who should have been queer.
Frodo and Sam — The Lord of the Rings
(New Line Cinema)Let’s start with a classic, the greatest missed opportunity in an all-time great fantasy series. Peter Jackson’s The Lord of the Rings trilogy had all the necessary ingredients for a queer epic. Two twinks are tasked with throwing an evil piece of jewelry into a flaming pit, while hordes of burly orcs hunt them down. The queer subtext is palpable across the entire cast. Gandalf and Saruman’s bitter wizard rivalry fueled by unspoken gay yearning. Legolas and Gimli’s potential enemies-to-lovers romance on the field of battle. The gloriously genderbent antics of Éowyn. But the hottest fires of repressed queer desire burn near the summit of Mount Doom, when Samwise Gamgee whispers in Frodo’s ear about the taste of strawberries and then carries him on his back to complete their quest. Bilbo’s memoirs might call them friends, but the Fellowship of the Ring (and everyone else in Middle-earth) knows better.
