"Happy & Gay"
"Happy & Gay" is a revisionist history, queer cartoon created by animation filmmaker Lorelei Pepi. This is a film that explicitly points at the early 1930’s Hollywood animation cartoon film and the early Hollywood "Code" era. Stylistically, it’s much like the early “Betty Boop” or “Flip the Frog” cartoons with the “rubber hose” arms and legs, dancing and musical numbers, and surrealistically transforming shapes and characters.
