Newfest -- New York's famed LGBTQ+ Film Festival -- begins Thursday, Oct. 10, and looks promising, with 12 days of new films -- as well as some memorable ones from the archives including trans classic "Dressed in Blue" (1983), "Elvira: Mistress of the Dark" (1988) and the 50th anniversary of John Waters's "Female Trouble" (1974). (There will also be screenings of "Pecker" and "Polyester.")
A quick look at the schedule and I'm excited to see "I Don't Understand You," in which Andrew Rannells and Nick Kroll play a couple whose picture-perfect vacation takes a hilarious turn toward disaster; the documentary 'Liza: A Truly Terrific Absolutely True Story"; and "A Nice Indian Boy" ("Karan Soni and Jonathan Groff star in this jubilant rom-com about cultural differences and joyful family reconciliations"), which is the opening-night film + party.

P.S. They're also screening the first two episodes of the acclaimed Bridget Everett series "Somebody, Somewhere," which I absolutely adore!
