An Evening with Lily Tomlin and Friends (1993)

An Evening with Lily Tomlin and Friends features openly lesbian icon Lily Tomlin performing her acclaimed characters and comedy. While not explicitly focused on LGBTQ+ themes, Tomlin's prominent presence and her work's empathetic social commentary contribute to a net positive portrayal by affirming LGBTQ+ visibility and dignity.

Through characters like 'Sister Boogie Woman,' the film offers a comedic and often affectionate portrayal of Christian culture, particularly gospel music. While there is satire aimed at the performance and commercial aspects of religious entertainment, the humor stems from human foibles rather than a condemnation of the faith itself, presenting adherents with a degree of sympathy and vibrancy.
