Paris Is Burning

Paris Is Burning

I only saw this film in 2019, and the sorrows that stayed in history continue to cause trouble. People's fear of dying from promiscuity and AIDS will instantly turn into a kind of adventurous excitement.

Transgender women are confused with the identities of drag queens, and they will be driven out of the house by their parents when they come out of the closet. This is New York in the late 1980s.

I don’t like photographers deliberately using the lens to show their femininity. For example, when speaking is a hand movement, it is too obvious that a straight person is shooting, and the language of the lens is fussy.

The way to take group portraits of transgender women is only a trivial matter.

Paris Is Burning quotes

  • Dorian Corey: I always had hopes of being a big star. But as you get older, you aim a little lower. Everybody wants to make an impression, some mark upon the world. Then you think, you've made a mark on the world if you just get through it, and a few people remember your name. Then you've left a mark. You don't have to bend the whole world. I think it's better to just enjoy it. Pay your dues, and just enjoy it. If you shoot an arrow and it goes real high, hooray for you.

  • Pepper LaBeija: This is white America. Any other nationality that is not of the white set, knows this and accepts this till the day they die. That is everybody's dream and ambition as a minority - to live and look as well as a white person. It is pictured as being in America. Every media you have; from TV to magazines, to movies, to films... I mean, the biggest thing that minority watches is what? "Dynasty" and "The Colbys". Umm, "All My Children" - the soap operas. Everybody has a million-dollar bracket. When they showing you a commercial from Honey Grahams to Crest, or Lestoil or Pine-sol - everybody's in their own home. The little kids for Fisher Price toys; they're not in no concrete playground. They're riding around the lawn. The pool is in the back. This is white America. And when it comes to the minorities; especially black - we as a people, for the past 400 years - is the greatest example of behavior modification in the history of civilization. We have had everything taken away from us, and yet we have all learned how to survive. That is why, in the ballroom circuit, it is so obvious that if you have captured the great white way of living, or looking, or dressing, or speaking - you is a marvel.
