Craig Gilmore and Mike Dytri in Gregg Araki's The Living End (1992)
This year is the 20th Anniversary of Gregg Araki’s The Living End and the birth of New Queer Cinema as a whole. Outfest’s Legacy Project has preserved Araki’s films, as well as the work of several New Queer directors, including Swoon!
After a screening of The Living End hosted by Outfest, I asked Gregg a few questions about his films, films today and what goes on in that head of his.
Your films never take themselves too seriously, but you always drive your point home. Where does your sense of humor come from?
I guess it’s sort of in my nature and the way I view at the world. I’m not really sure. I just sit down to write my movies and this kind of crazy stuff – my outlook on the world – comes out.
