Interviews with six men who share a common, unusual trait,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Celluloid Gaze (Paperback)
First published in 1987 under the title "Conversations with My Elders," Celluloid Gaze by Boze Hadleigh is a ground breaking collection of interviews with six men who share a common and unusual trait relevant to their success in the movie-making industry: they were gay, and during their lifetimes, they concealed their sexual orientation from the public. Yet these interviews are remarkably open and candid about how these men's sexuality affected their lives and careers. A new preface reflects upon changing attitudes toward homosexuality in just 15 years, and how some prejudices have remained as rooted as ever. Celluloid Gaze is an informed and informative contribution to Film History and Gay Studies academic reference collections and supplemental reading lists, as well as highly recommended reading for fans of the film work of Sal Mineo, Luchino Visconti, Cecil Beaton, George Cukor, Rainer Werner Fassbinder, and Rock Hudson.
