I'm watching The Producers (2005) after not having watched it in a few years, and I'm only 15 minutes in and I've decided that Leo Bloom is an autistic icon.

- special interests: accountancy, Broadway musicals
- blue blanket as comfort object
- absolute autistic meltdown
- stimming
- his eye contact is super intense when he does it, otherwise his doesn't meet Max's eyes directly
- super bothered by having his personal space invaded

- really upset by Max's hostile body language and begs him to have his nonverbal communication match his words
- does what he needs to calm back down and go back into professionalism mode
- uncomfortable with breaking the rules, but does it
- trusts Max when he shouldn't

also Leo is a fashion icon and you can't even try to tell me i'm wrong

god am i going to end up making a "this character, but make them queer" pinterest board like i ended up doing with george mcfly. i can already tell it's going to happen, RIP me.

also like, leo's the protagonist of this movie, obviously. he gets the girl in the end.

leo:
when it comes to wooing women /
there's a few things that i lack. /
beautiful girls, wearing nothing but pearls /
chasing me, embracing me /
I'D HAVE AN ATTACK!!!

absolute icon, he is.

wait am i only reading leo bloom as a transmasc autistic jewish icon because *i'm* a transmasc autistic jewish icon?

neat.

ooof, leo keeps his eyes closed while his boss is yelling at him. autistic icon, i tells ya.

he's also a short guy with a clear affinity for tall women. t4t icon, leo bloom.

haha just kidding, we all know that the true queer fashion icon in this movie is Carmen Ghia.

you know you've seen me in this exact outfit before.

roger and carmen's apartment is an interior design masterpiece. the marble with vivid purple and magenta fabrics, gold and iron accents, and florals. chefkiss.

brb probably gonna build their penthouse in the sims 4, it's such an inspired aesthetic.
