Review of Pride

Pride (2021)
3/10
Super-mediocre
10 June 2023
The 60s and 70s episodes are more or less ok, but the 80s episode is historically offensive. There is hardly any analysis of the AIDS crisis and instead of focusing on the huge amount of material that is available it goes back and forth to the present, mixing and matching topics and essentially avoiding the biggest crisis in recent queer history. It is heart-breaking that we still cannot truly look at this time and dissect it historically properly. Perhaps the trauma is too recent, but we really ought to. And this documentary really has failed to produce anything of value to do with the 80s. Avoid.
