Off the Shelf: Out at the Movies: A History of Gay Cinema

New this week and just itching to be added to the Movie Dearest library is Out at the Movies: A History of Gay Cinemaby Steven Paul Davies (with a foreword by actor Simon Callow). From Victim to My Beautiful Laundrette to Brokeback Mountain and even the upcoming Milk, the book promises to be yet another valuable resource for anyone interested in the study of queer film.

The book also covers gay filmmakers and actors and their influence within the industry, the most iconic scenes from gay cinema, and the most memorable dialogue from key films. Sounds like a must read!

Click on the following link to buy Out at the Movies: A History of Gay Cinemafrom Amazon.com.
