The silver screen. Color me lavender

Rappaport, Mark, (film director.). Butler, Dan, 1954- (narrator.). Kino Classics, (publisher.). Dan Butler. (Cast).

Summary: From the ground-breaking director of Rock Hudson₂s Home Movies and From the Journals of Jean Seberg, comes another witty and enlightening essay on the gay undercurrents of Hollywood₂s Golden Age. Dan Butler (Frasier) acts as tour guide as he uncovers a squeamish fascination with gay eroticism and camp. The film is a rich and funny meditation on American sexual identity, film history and culture. You will never look at Westerns the same way again.
