Ahead of the Curve

Ahead of the Curve is a powerful reminder of the vital importance of connection and community, the impact of representation, and the never-ending fight for ever-broader understanding of inclusion.

A vivid portrait of a resilient and inspiring figure as well as a microcosm of three decades of social and cultural change, Ahead of the Curve is a provocative and illuminating way to usher in LBGTQ+ Pride Month.

The true story of how Deneuve magazine - later renamed Curve - was able to launch in 1990 is as outlandish as the best urban legends.

A valuable portrait of a great risk-taker.

An unexpectedly insightful look at a piece of lesbian history. Long live magazines!

The film's subjects are overwhelmingly earnest, but the movie suffers for its substitution of enterprise over entertainment.

Sound kinda crazy? Yeah, it is that sense of audaciousness and underdog rebellion that makes this documentary so interesting and fun.

A nostalgic look at how this Gen X magazine was pioneering, the documentary doesn't shy away from discussing controversies (like the name change) and missed opportunities...

...a smart and impressively comprehensive documentary covering the establishment and history of Curve Magazine...

Ahead of the Curve is somewhat of a pilgrimage, led by a woman who recognizes that growth fuels a community to thrive, a woman who is also iconic enough to speed us along toward every curve.
