Indeed, in 2018, The Guardian published an article highlighting the importance of queer folks seeing themselves on-screen in stories that depict joy and positivity.

This isn't to diminish the ongoing struggles that the LGBTQ+ community continues to face all around the world, but it's just as important to see queer characters in film reach a happy ending. June is finally here, which means it's time to celebrate the beautiful existence of LGBTQ+ people! We should, of course, celebrate queer pride all year long, but Pride Month gives us a special opportunity to highlight our struggles, bring attention to issues that need to be discussed, and honor our history.
