Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Queer Filmmaker (2005's The Joy of Life) and Sundance Entry Blue Diary, film historian (2004's The Queer Movie Poster Book & 1996's The Ulimate Guide to Lesbian & Gay Film & Video) curates this collection of trailers for gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender and queer movies which charts the history and marketing of gay and lesbian films. The hysterically funny, occasionally infuriating, and ultimate moving trailers mirror society's attitudes towards queer people over time. What's remarkable is how few of these trailers tell you explicitly what the film is about, relying instead on titillating exploitation or subtle inference to convey the film's essence. Includes trailers for Ed Wood's Glen or Glenda, Dirk Bogarde's Victim, Mart Crowley's The Boys in the Band, the camp classics The Gay Deceivers and Norman, is That You?, and dramas such as The Children's Hour, The Damned and Sunday, Bloody Sunday and The Sergeant. Entertaining and laugh-out-loud funny, if you love gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender filmmaking, you must own Homo Promo (and companion The Queer Movie Poster Book).
