I rarely use the word "delight," but Harvey Fierstein is a god damn delight.

Exactly the word I came here to say--and made even more delightful by the pure joy on Seth's face throughout this interview.

@@oscarinacan Mrs Doubtfire was my introduction to him too, but I definitely recommend falling down the rabbit hole of his interviews! The man's just incredibly captivating. A great place to start is his 1983 interview with Barbara Walters - while her questions about gay people aren't going to teach you anything these days, there's a gentle but fearless authenticity to his responses that I think still resonates and feels enriching regardless of your sexuality.

Years back when Seattle Men's Chorus was rehearsing in the basement of First United Methodist Church I suddenly heard the basses screaming like schoolgirls, " It's Harvey! It's Harvey!"

Not just an important stage and movie personality he was one of the visible faces of gay liberation in the 70s. His interviews were so dignified yet funny and personable at that time he was amazing and even Barbara Walters seemed intelligent in his company.

@mattbarneveld815 2 года назад

As a young gay man in the early '80s, seeing Torch Song Trilogy on stage in Sydney had a profoundly "normalising" effect for my self acceptance. While clearly quintessentially gay, Jewish, New York, the issues the plays dealt with were brilliantly universal and struck many chords with this young, gay Australian. Fierstein may be an American, and international, icon of stage and screen however, for me, first and foremost, he will always be a gay icon as an early "out and proud" leader in the broader community for us.
