Ok, even though I watched it this week and I wanted to see Gia, if we could watch Ideal Home on Prime, I'd also find that acceptable until we can watch Gia.

Ideal Home is like a spiritual successor to The Birdcage in a sense.

IDK why but Paul Rudd does it for me in this movie, playing a guy named Paul. What inventive naming.

I don't think it was given much of a release outside of LGBTQ/New Mexico film festivals LOL. It's not the best movie ever - and it's clear the leads are straight men playing gay - but it's very cute and warm-hearted.

If whatever we pick for the second movie is short, though, there is always that short Almodovar on Netflix - Strange Way of Life - with Pedro Pascal and Ethan Hawke LOL. I know it's a gay short but idk how gay. I assume rather.

(it's 30 minutes long)
