Product Description
Product Description
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.

That's BOGARDE ...not Bogart!,
By
This review is from: Brief Encounters: Lesbians and Gays in British Cinema, 1930-71 (Film studies) (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.
