While not all change may be wholly positive, one development that is unarguably a good thing is the proliferation of more stories centring hitherto marginalised groups and demographics within the mainstream – from the emergence of a strain of newly en vogue queer cinema in the early 2010s, including films like A Single Man, Carol and Call Me by Your Name, to the way in which the likes of Black Panther and Moonlight have marked a new epoch for black creatives both behind, and in front of, the camera.
