Tricia Cooke on 'Honey Don't' & 'But I'm a Cheerleader'

Feeling Seen

Tricia Cooke is having her moment, and it's been a long time coming. Together with partner Ethan Coen, she's made last years DRIVE AWAY DOLLS and the new HONEY DON'T from scripts written long ago. And in some ways, the seed for these very gay, very fun movies was planted by a modern classic of fun gay cinema: Jamie Babbit's BUT I'M A CHEERLEADER. Tricia and Jordan talk about that film, the new one, and the weird juxtaposition of being free to make this once-"uncommercial" cinema in a time when queer freedoms feel so tenuous.

Then, Jordan has one quick thing about the forthcoming Stephen King adaptation, THE LONG WALK.
