Love isn't just for the young.
Our society is often alarmingly ageist, and the LGBT community even more so. But Danny DeVito's latest short film, Curmudgeons, hopes to dispel some of the myths surrounding love, age and sexuality.
The film was directed by DeVito, and played at the Tribeca Film Festival, introducing audiences to two grumpy old gay men, who just happen to be head-over-heels in love.
It's hilarious, heartbreaking and only 15 minutes long, so give it a look and let us know what you think!

        9 LGBTQ+ fall movies to curl up with this season and where to watch them

When the leaves turn and the days start shrinking, there’s a particular kind of movie that just feels right. Something intimate, heartfelt, a little melancholic, and the type of story you watch under a blanket with a mug of something warm. And for queer audiences, fall is the perfect time to lean into those slower, softer stories that blend love, longing, and self-discovery.
Sure, summer has the beach rom-coms and winter brings the holiday chaos, but autumn? Autumn belongs to the wistful glances, the letters never sent, and the romance that sneaks up between cups of cider. From classic sapphic dramas to small-town gay comfort films, these nine queer movies capture the spirit of the season in different shades of cozy, complicated, and beautifully human.
