""the great tradition of les[bian] comedians being sexually aggressive with straight men.""
""A trope pioneered, or maybe not be pioneered by but exploded by Jane Lynch in the work of Judd Apatow.""
Kate McKinnon stars as Amy in The Roses, married to Barry (Andy Samberg) and sexually attracted to Theo (Benedict Cumberbatch). The Roses centers on married couple Theo and Ivy Rose (Cumberbatch and Olivia Colman) whose relationship devolves into hostility, affecting family and friends. Sapphic interest in Samberg and Cumberbatch is linked to their handsomeness and a comedic tradition of lesbians being sexually forward with straight men. The tradition is associated with Jane Lynch’s work in Judd Apatow projects and shows like Glee. The film’s ensemble includes Alison Janney, Ncuti Gatwa, Sunita Mani, and others, and is in cinemas now.
