If that's the way they want it, then fine!
Sort of. I suppose you can pick holes in it all you like, but gay is certainly an important genre in film.

I hope you mean Graham Norton, the openly gay television presenter, rather than Graeme Norton the New Zealand rugby league coach.

True. The Crying Game is an example of a critically acclaimed film.
But does the genre deserve a special slot?

Why not? It's an award ceremony, who cares.

The need to give someone an award on the basis of
homosexuality, or for any sexuality for that matter,
is strange, that's the only adjective I'll use, as I
wonder why anybody would want an award for bieng
gay, straight or lesbian in the first place.

What's next, the "special award for people with two
eyes in their head"
