Does 'Out,' new Pixar short with first Disney gay protagonist, answer LGBTQ inclusion call?

Pixar’s latest edition, now streaming on Disney+, features its first LGBTQ animated lead character as he finds the courage to reveal his sexual orientation to his parents in “Out.”

The nine-minute short film was written and directed by Steven Clay Hunter, who has worked in animation or visual effects on “Finding Dory,” “WALL-E,” “Brave,” “Toy Story 4" and many more projects. “Out” tells the story of Greg and his boyfriend, Manuel , as they receive an unexpected visit from Greg’s parents just as the young couple is preparing to move to the city.Aided by cat and dog fairy god-pets, Greg switches bodies with his dog, Jim, with the help of a magic dog collar. Much of the action centers on attempts trying to distract Greg’s mother from discovering a framed photograph of the couple hugging.

In “Out,” the character Greg switches places with his dog before revealing his sexual orientation to his parents.“Out” is a part of Pixar’s SparkShorts — a collection of six animated independent short films streaming on Disney+.A statement from Pixar Animations Studios president Jim Morris said, “The SparkShorts program is designed to discover new storytellers, explore new storytelling techniques, and experiment with new production workflows.

Holy shit Latimes tops themselves in one night...can you believe this shit? Angelenos do you like groomers, abusers, enablers? What's in the water in El Segundo?

This story feels incredibly powerful for 1991.
