The Culture of Queers

The Culture of Queers is a study of gay male culture from the early gay liberation movement to today's "post-queer" environment. Richard Dyer focuses on key aspects of queer cultural production, examining genres from vampire films, to film noir and heritage cinema, and offering queer readings of filmmakers such as Visconti, Fassbinder and Pasolini, and stars like Rock Hudson and Charles Hawtrey.
