Trivia
Awareness of AIDS and HIV increased in the late '80s, which is when Pose is set.

Goofs

Quotes
Blanca Rodriguez: Do you know what the greatest pain a person can feel is? The greatest tragedy a life can experience? It is having a truth inside of you and you not being able to share it. It is having a great beauty, and no one there to see it. This young boy has been discarded, and he is so young; he believes that it has something to do with who he is. It's like cancer. It is going to eat at him from the inside until he starts to resent even the best parts of himself.

One of the most iconic shows

This series is my absolute favourite!

Gripping, heart breaking and absolutely beautiful. The scenes are perfect with fashion and well selected music at its centre, each character has their own stand which make them all my favourite.
