More About the Author
Product Description
Synopsis
An examination of lesbian and gays in British cinema, this book explores a range of lesbian and gay screen images from such diverse films as "Soldiers of the King", "Pygmalion", "Dangerous Moonlight", "Blithe Spirit", "Brief Encounter", and "The Servant", revealing a vital, varied and sensuous cinema. Arranged chronologically, and examining performers, directors and over 150 famous, half-remembered and forgotten films, the book forms a celebration of the contribution of gays and lesbians to British cinema culture. It includes an appendix of gay men's reactions to "Victim", the landmark Dirk Bogart film.

Format:Paperback
Don't let the unforgivable misspelling of Dirk Bogarde's name as "Bogart" in the product description put you off reading this fascinating exploration. Dirk Bogarde was the star of VICTIM, a groundbreaking film on homosexuality in 1961.
