trailing feathers and chiffon all the way

there are two likeable aspects to this cute little book. the first is reuter's sprightly approach to his subject. he has a good time with his catalog of films. mind you, none of these films offers any surprises. at all. this are the films that most gay men pick as their all-time camp faves and each is well represented in this book. the second, and even more likeable aspect of the book is the first chapter. it is a nicely written primer that situates the place these films play in the construction of a gay identity that is unique to western society. once again, it is largely male and is even further defined by race and class but it works as both entertaining reading and scholarly discourse on queer spectatorship.

A must- have for film lovers of all kinds

Mr. Reuter has written a wonderfully funny book with lots of information and pictures, all of which beautifully captures a clear love of movies. His unique perspective helps to both remind one of the pleasures of the one hundred films included within, as well as add a fresh dimension to our understanding of them. In addition, the book made me laugh out loud a number of times. A job well done.
