Description
Out, outrageous, provocative, and proud, this comprehensive anthology and library resource reviews 500 of the best of Hollywood's output of gay, bisexual, lesbian, transgendered, and queer questioning films, with a special emphasis on how gays changed the movies we know and love. Conceived as a working guide to what viewers should stock within their DVD queues, it reviews everything from blockbusters to indie sleepers, with about a dozen special features discussing the ironies, betrayals, subterfuge, and gossip of who, what, and how it happened when the film world's closet doors slowly creaked open beginning in 1960. This award-winning book has received the following accolades: Honorable Mention (First Runner-up) from the 2010 Los Angeles Book Festival Honorable Mention (First Runner-up) from the 2010 New England Book Festival Nominated for Best GLBT Nonfiction Book of the year by the IBPA's Ben Franklin Awards Nominated as Foreword Review's 2010 Book of the Year in the category of Drama and the Performing Arts
