The Out Takes Guide to the Best Queer Films of the Decade

Arts, TV & Film

It’s nearly the end of the decade so we took stock of the past ten years that was and looked back at the queer films that left a big impression on us from 2010 – 2019. It was a hard task with so many great queer movies vying for a place in our top ten so we compared notes and came up with a list that we think shines a light on many of the best LGBTIQ films from the past ten years.

We also noticed a common theme, that many of our favourite films have not only featured on Out Takes over the years but we’ve also been fortunate enough to speak with many of our favourite directors, writers and actors from many of the films on our list. Check out the Out Takes podcast feed for more great interviews and programs from the home of queer cinema on JOY.

Did your favourites make the cut? Was there anything that we missed? Let us know what you think – outtakes@joy.org.au
