8 Iconic Movie Moments Reimagined With Queer Couples<\/b>
\nFor decades finding representation of the lesbian<\/a>, gay<\/a>, bisexual<\/a> and transgender (LGBT) community in Hollywood that didn’t rely on cliches, stereotyping or violence seemed like an impossible task.<\/p>\n

Now, as queer people are gradually being folded<\/a> into mainstream society and we are seeing more queer storylines and characters<\/a> than ever before, we began to wonder — what would some of Hollywood’s most beloved films look like with a queer twist?<\/p>\n

As a result, Kriti Kaur, who drew the illustrations, reimagined eight films by turning iconic cinema opposite-sex<\/a> couples<\/a> into queer couples<\/a>. These striking images raise the question: What would all of our favorite Hollywood references mean to our culture as a whole if queer people had been as present as non-queer couples<\/a> in film and television?<\/p>\n

1. “Casablanca”<\/strong>
\"casablanca\"<\/p>\n

2. “Clueless”<\/strong>
\"clueless\"<\/p>\n

Kriti Kaur, who drew the illustrations, came up with the idea for these images after thinking about a way to portray the universal nature of love, no matter what one’s sexual orientation or gender identity may be. She told HuffPost Gay Voices, “I came up with this when I was trying to brainstorm ideas about portraying the concept of love and how it stays the same regardless of people’s gender identities. And I do think that when people think of love, they look back to these famous films that showcase how powerful and amazing it can be. Recreating those moments with LGBT couples<\/a> just made sense!”<\/p>\n

Check out the rest of the images below.<\/p>\n

3. “Dirty Dancing”<\/strong>
\"dirty<\/p>\n

4. “Grease”<\/strong>
\"grease\"<\/p>\n

5. “Love Actually”<\/strong>
\"love<\/p>\n

6. “Pretty Woman”<\/strong>
\"pretty<\/p>\n

7. “Titanic”<\/strong>
\"titanic\"<\/p>\n

8. “It’s A Wonderful Life”<\/strong>
\"wonderful<\/p>\n
