Click here to send us a message!This week we're joined by film scholar Syd Wrigley, who joins the podcast to discuss Gregg Araki's famed Teen Apocalypse Trilogy. Starting with Totally Fucked Up in 1993, he followed it with The Doom Generationin 1995 and finally Nowhere in 1997, the trilogy that would define a generation and stands at the center of the New Queer Cinema movement. Recently re-released via Criterion, these films are being discovered by a brand new generation, and Araki is only now finding auteur status.
Bookwaves/Artwaves is produced and hosted by Richard Wolinsky. Links to assorted local theater & book venues Todd Haynes Todd Haynes, independent filmmaker, in conversation with host Richard Wolinsky. Recorded February 27, 2025. The director of ten feature length films, Todd Haynes is an independent film-maker with his roots in New Queer Cinema. After coming to the attention of the film community with his short film, Superstar: The Karen Carpenter Story, in which the “actors” were Barbie Dolls, he achieved fame with his first feature, Poison, which told three stories in different ways, all of which commented on the AIDS epidemic. He followed that with the much-lauded Safe, and then moved on to mainstream success with the lush melodrama, Far from Heaven. His later films include Velvet Goldmine, focusing on the glam rock era, I'm Not There, in which several actors portrayed Bob Dylan, Carol, Dark Waters, Wonderstruck, and his latest film, May December (Netflix). His documentary, Velvet Underground, is available on Apple Plus. Along the way there was a miniseries, Mildred Pierce, starring Kate Winslet, on HBO (streaming on MAX). All his films are available streaming. The films of Todd Haynes will be shown in a retrospective, “Todd Haynes: Far From Safe,” through April 12th at BAMPFA, Berkeley Art Museum and Pacific Film Archive. Special thanks to AJ Fox and the staff at Pacific Film Archive.

In this episode of High Theory, Laura Stamm talks about the biopic. One of the oldest forms of narrative cinema, biographical pictures are a mainstay of the medium today. Early biopics played an important role in public health discourse, representing the discoveries of science and the lives of scientists, which in turn led queer artists to adopt the genre in response to the AIDS crisis. Laura's book, The Queer Biopic in the AIDS Era (Oxford UP, 2022), asks why queer filmmakers repeatedly produced biographical films of queer individuals living and dead throughout the years surrounding the AIDS crisis. These films evoke the genre's history building up lives worthy of admiration and emulation and the parallel history of representing lives damaged. By portraying lives damaged by inconceivable loss, queer filmmakers challenge the illusion of a coherent self presumably reinforced by the biopic genre and in doing so, their films open the potential for new means of connection and relationality. In the episode Laura references many films, including the Greta Garbo film Queen Christina (1933); Freud: The Secret Passion (1962); The Story of Louis Pasteur (1936); Dr. Ehrlich's Magic Bullet (1940); John Greyson's musical Zero Patience (1993); and the Amy Winehouse biopic Back to Black (2024). Her research extends beyond the 1980s moment of crisis, and in the episode she gives a good explainer pre-code Hollywood and (briefly) the New Queer Cinema of the 1990s.

Laura Stamm is Assistant Professor of Health Humanities and Bioethics and Director of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion for Department of Medicine at University of Rochester. She completed her PhD in Film and Media Studies and Gender, Sexuality, and Women's Studies at the University of Pittsburgh. Dr. Stamm's research interests broadly focuses on LGBTQ+ health, transgender studies, and medicine in visual culture.

https://notesonfilm1.com/2024/10/28/the-gus-van-sant-podcast-no-4-lisa-purse-on-even-cowgirls-get-the-blues-1993/ Lisa Purse on EVEN COWGIRLS GET THE BLUES (Gus Van Sant, 1993) I was truly delighted when Lisa Purse agreed to talk to me about EVEN COWGIRLS GET THE BLUES. Lisa is a Professor of Film Studies at Reading University, one of the most brilliant scholars on action movies, and a nuanced thinker on questions of mediations, conflicts, identities. I wanted to have her on the podcast because I thought she might expand my thinking on EVEN COWGIRLS GET THE BLUES, and she did. In the podcast we discuss seeing the film when it was first released, seeing it now, and explore the hows and whys of changing responses. We note the context of ‘New Queer Cinema' and the different kinds of experiments that were then taking place. EVEN COWGIRLS GET THE BLUES is a film that refuses seriousness and we speculate that maybe neither of us was then in a place where we could recognise the value of that. We discuss how the film continues Van Sant's interest in ‘The Road', and discuss movement and flow, as rhythm, narrative device, formal strategy, and condensed ideation. Is it a film that's trying to do much? B. Ruby Rich wrote on how the film contains references to forms of collective action. Is it more of its time than we first realised? We discuss the film as a form of active allyship that is not to be sneezed at, and note the hostility of its initial reception, refencing B. Ruby Rich's contention that with this film Van Sant fell into the category of a female director (at least for some) and therefore got treated as one.
https://notesonfilm1.com/2024/10/02/the-gus-van-sant-podcast-3-my-own-private-idaho-1991/ We discuss one of the films that very much marked me, the image above was the image on my letterhead in the time we still used snail mail. In the accompanying podcast we discuss the film's historical significance. Was it a 'film that (made) history? We discuss it relationship to New Queer Cinema. We speculate on whether the film queers Shakespeare and discuss the film in relation to Welles' Chimes at Midnight. We comment on the significance of the casting, the contributions of River Phoenix, Keanu Reeves, Udo Kier and others and what their contributions to the film might be. We also discuss in detail particular scenes, the one where the magazine covers come to life; the rhyming musical/ hustler interludes, the great campfire scene. ...and much more.
This week your hosts Mark, Matt & associate producer Amy Nelson strap on their cowboy boots to discuss My Own Private Idaho! The 1991 American independent adventure drama film written and directed by Gus Van Sant. Idaho is considered a landmark film in New Queer Cinema, an early 1990s movement in queer-themed independent filmmaking. The film is notable for its then-taboo subject matter and avant-garde style.

Hollywood has long been a place of glamour and storytelling, but its history with LGBTQ+ representation is complex and ever-evolving. Film critic Alonso Duralde dives deep into this fascinating world in his new book, Hollywood Pride: A Celebration of LGBTQ+ Representation and Perseverance in Film. Hollywood Pride is a history of queer Hollywood in chronological order, starting from the very beginnings of cinema in 1895 and journeying all the way to 2022. It's not just about the movies themselves; Alonso delves into the lives of the artists – actors, directors, writers, and more – who have shaped Hollywood, both on and off screen. "The book is a look at how queer history evolved over those decades, off the screen and in society," Alonso explains. "And then how that was reflected in the movies." Each chapter focuses on a specific period, highlighting the key LGBTQ+ figures and films of that era. It explores not only positive portrayals but also the coded messages and subtext that emerged during times of censorship, like the Hays Code era. Alonso argues that even negative portrayals hold certain significance. "Even negative inclusion is at least visibility and a reminder that we exist," he says. "It's not the greatest reminder, but it's better than nothing." The book examines Alfred Hitchcock's films, some of which are very homophobic, but still offer a glimpse of LGBTQ+ characters.There are also unexpected gems celebrated in the book, such as 1999's The Mummy, a film that has resonated with the bisexual community. By the 1970's, Dog Day Afternoon and Midnight Cowboy could more openly deal with gay characters, if not in the best light. Alonso especially enjoyed writing about Salome, Caged, I Am a Fugitive from a Chain Gang, Ed Wood's Glen or Glenda, and by the 1990's, the era of the New Queer Cinema movement. While celebrating the strides made in LGBTQ+ representation, Alonso acknowledges there are still many stories waiting to be told. "It feels like I was skimming the surface of a very deep topic," he says. But even a glimpse into this rich history is a valuable step forward, offering a deeper understanding of LGBTQ+ experiences in cinema and beyond. You can find Hollywood Pride as a book, ebook, or audiobook wherever books are sold. **WIN A COPY OF HOLLYWOOD PRIDE!

This week we're taking a look at two films from Gregg Araki. One of the architects of the New Queer Cinema movement of the 1990's, Araki pivoted in the new century after finding critical success with Mysterious Skin. He followed up that award winner by pivoting to a stoner comedy that Max argues is worth revisiting every April 20. Say Hi!
Alonso Duralde joins me to talk about his new book, 'Hollywood Pride: A Celebration of LGBTQ+ Representation and Perseverance in Film'. Published in May 2024, 'Hollywood Pride' presents a history of film from the dawn of cinema to the "pansy craze" of the 1930s and the New Queer Cinema of the 1990s, all the way up to today. Illustrated with more than 175 colour and black-and-white images, 'Hollywood Pride' points to the bright future of LGBTQ+ representation in cinema, by revealing the story of the community's inclusion and erasure, its visibility and invisibility, and its triumphs and tragedies. ................ Time stamps: 4:00 I ask Alonso about the formative media that inspired his career in journalism 8:42 "Tell me about how your career has developed..." 9:00 Alonso has worked as a film festival programmer 11:00 Alonso tells me about his other books, including books on Christmas movies 11:19 I ask Alonso about his work with Turner Classic Movies (TCM) 14:52 Queer representation in film, especially in the 1990s (as in 'Mrs. Doubtfire'; 'Four Weddings and a Funeral', etc.) 17:41 "What's valuable about a book like this is that it's a reminder that [inclusion] didn't all just happen... they could take it all away real quick..." 18:47 Rock Hudson, Anthony Perkins and Tab Hunter's happy ending 20:38 Alonso on closeted famous Hollywood stars 21:27 Claudette Colbert and Marlene Dietrich ride an amusement park slide at a birthday party for Carole Lombard, as you do 22:00 The end of Pre-Code American cinema 24:08 Home media as a "Godsend" for access to LBGTQ+ films 27:14 'Brokeback Mountain' and the mid-2000s 32:42 Same-sex marriage in the US and Canada 37:00 Metrosexual culture in the 2000s: "guyliner", guys kissing, etc. 39:20 Reality TV and LGBTQ+ representation 41:06 Alonso tells me about interviewing Heath Ledger for The Advocate on a junket at the Toronto International Film Festival 45:14 "'Brokeback Mountain' is hardly Jane Austen, but it is [about] people living in a society that's being rather proscriptive about who you are allowed to love and not allowed..." 46:30 I put Alonso on the spot and ask him about his favourite film in 'Hollywood Pride' 48:50 "What advice would you give your teenage self today?" ................

In this shortcast edition of the Podcast for Social Research, recorded live at BISR Central, BISR's Rebecca Ariel Porte and Isi Litke discuss Stephen Frears's 1985 classic of queer cinema, My Beautiful Laundrette. Conversation ranges over the film's Thatcherite backdrop; its depiction of queer, and cross-racial, love; and its inimitable mix of gritty social realism and dreamlike sensuality. What's unique, in the queer cinematic canon, about a film made just before the AIDS crisis emerged in British public consciousness—that is, just prior to the inceasing identification of queerness with disease? How does it weave elements of the fairy tale into its story of cross-class, cross-racial love? And how does the film, with its "qualified utopian hope," contrast with later, more pessimistic classics of the New Queer Cinema? Why, in a film set in a laundromat, is it a source of optimism that some things don't stay clean?

Todd Haynes no es un director muy conocido si se dice tal cual suena, pero sus películas si que tienen bastante interés si nos centramos en el feminismo tradicional, no el actual que está manipulado por intereses políticos. Si nombro película como “Lejos del cielo”, “Mildred Pierce”, “Carol” o “Secretos de un escándalo” quizá te suene más. Y si no es así, escucha este apartado para conocer un análisis de sus películas y si no las has visto, te animo a ello. Todd Haynes, nacido el 2 de enero de 1961 en Los Ángeles, California, es un director de cine, guionista y productor estadounidense reconocido por su contribución significativa al New Queer Cinema. Su educación en la Universidad Brown y el Bard College le proporcionó una base sólida en arte y semiótica, lo que influyó profundamente en su enfoque cinematográfico. Desde sus inicios con el cortometraje "Assassins: A Film Concerning Rimbaud" en 1985, Haynes ha explorado temas complejos como la identidad, el deseo y la marginalidad social. Con una carrera que abarca más de cuatrdoo décadas, Haynes ha recibido aclamación por obras como "Poison" (1991), "Far from Heaven" (2002), "Carol" (2015) y "Dark Waters" (2019). Su película más reciente, "May December" (2023), continúa su tradición de contar historias provocativas y visualmente cautivadoras. A lo largo de los años, Haynes ha sido honrado con numerosos premios y distinciones, incluyendo el Premio Independent Spirit al mejor director y el Gran Premio del Jurado en el Festival de Cine de Sundance. El estilo de Haynes se caracteriza por su habilidad para entrelazar narrativas personales con críticas sociales, a menudo desafiando las convenciones de género y narrativa. Su película "Far from Heaven", por ejemplo, es una reimaginación del melodrama clásico que aborda temas de raza, sexualidad y clase en la América de los años 50. "Carol", por otro lado, es una delicada exploración del amor prohibido en la década de 1950, que recibió elogios por su dirección artística y actuaciones. Haynes también ha incursionado en la televisión, dirigiendo la miniserie "Mildred Pierce" para HBO, que le valió a Kate Winslet un premio Emmy por su actuación. Su enfoque en personajes femeninos fuertes y complejos es una constante en su trabajo, ofreciendo una plataforma para historias a menudo ignoradas o mal representadas en el cine mainstream. La filmografía de Haynes refleja su compromiso con el cine como medio para la exploración y el cuestionamiento de las normas culturales. A través de su lente, el público es invitado a ver el mundo desde perspectivas alternativas, desafiando prejuicios y abriendo diálogos sobre temas cruciales. Su influencia en el cine independiente y queer es indiscutible, y su legado continúa inspirando a cineastas y espectadores por igual. En resumen, Todd Haynes es un cineasta que ha dejado una huella indeleble en el panorama cinematográfico contemporáneo. Su visión artística única y su valentía para abordar temas difíciles con sensibilidad y profundidad lo han establecido como una voz vital en el arte del cine.

We're in the future! The further we progress into the future, the more you feel what a sham all those sci-fi concepts are. ANYWAY what better way to celebrate the future than by going into the past. Yeah, we're covering the highly requested and regarded Todd Haynes, New Queer Cinema staple, 'Glam Rock' celebration: VELVET GOLDMINE. Starring a slew of big names from Jonathan Rhys Meyers, Ewan McGregor, Christian Bale, Eddie Izzard and Toni Collette. In the 'THIS IS NOT David Bowie' universe of the 60's and 70's rise of Glam, we have very similar figures pretending to be an Iggy Pop imposter with a dodgy accent. So sit back, kick off those glad rags and platform shoes and settle in! Bang a a gong! Ride a white swan! [INSERT ANOTHER T-REX LYRIC HERE]

Ellen E Jones and Mark Kermode hit the road to explore the lovers on the run genre, and celebrate 50 years of Terrence Malick's film debut, Badlands. Since the film's arrival in 1973, this dreamy and twisted fairy tale has inspired countless tales of lovers escaping dead end towns for the endless road - but it wasn't the first time this story had graced the silver screen. Mark enlists the help of a friend of the show, film critic Christina Newland. They discuss the hallmarks of the genre, its film noir beginnings, and why cinema is obsessed with tales of lawless lovers. Ellen then speaks to New Queer Cinema icon, Gregg Araki, who shares his subversive and anarchic take on the genre - and his theory as to why it is a staple of American cinema. Ellen also chats to director,Jonathan Entwistle to discuss relocating his TV show End of The F***ing World to this side of the Atlantic, and whether the genre is intrinsically American.

Well, it's time to dust off the old movie vault for this one. I put up a poll on IG to see if anyone has heard or even seen this film and it was a mystery to most. Now, this film I first saw ages ago at Mikey's house and seeing it again all these years later just brought me such delight. This quirky indie rom com stars Sean Hayes before he was known as Jack from Will and Grace. He's a Polaroid (ahh!) photographer who falls in love with a cute coffee barista boy (how 90s) who is a perfect facsimile of Brad Pitt in the Meet Joe Black era. It's all but almost disappeared from the internet so I hope that this will revive your memories if you have seen it or encourage you to track it down if this is a new find. Me and Mikey get into the adorable story, the interesting storytelling, cool late 90s fashion, and the pure CAMP throughout.Off-topic rants include: Wayne's World, some gossip, JTT and 90s heartthrobs, and more Vanderpump Rules chat --- Get BONUS episodes on 90s TV and culture (Freaks & Geeks, My So Called Life, Buffy, 90s culture documentaries, and more...) and to support the show join the Patreon!

We're back after a brief hiatus with a doozie of a movie to talk about! Zero Patience is an original musical dramedy directed and written by John Greyson and released in 1993. This film follows, seriously, an immortal British explorer-sexologist-turned-museum-taxidermist Sir Richard "Dick" Burton (actor John Robinson) and the earth-walking spirit of Zero, the gay man accused of originating the HIV-AIDS epidemic in North America (actor Normand Fauteux). With the help of Zero, Dick uncovers the truth behind the AIDS epidemic. Already a shocking premise, this movie exemplifies the daringness of the New Queer Cinema era, and it doubles down by including some hilarious and outlandish musical numbers, including a barbershop quartet on sauna etiquette and a duet between buttholes. Underneath it all, the movie has a solid emotional message at its core as it humanizes "Patient Zero" of the AIDS epidemic and left Jake and Kevin with lots to uncover! How has this not been made into an off-Broadway production yet? Does this film have more staying power than Philadelphia, released the same year? Is Randy Shilts being unfairly spoofed? This and more on this week's Cinema Very Gay! The next dastardly queer-coded Disney villain we visit is none other than Professor Ratigan (but don't call him a rat) from the movie The Great Mouse Detective from 1986. Voiced by the noted bisexual master of horror, Vincent Price, Ratigan brings a new level of danger to the queer villain role as he is matched against the protagonist, Basil of Baker Street.

A film within a film within a film, The Watermelon Woman is a brilliant example of New Queer Cinema. Lightheartedly combining camcorder, 16mm, and self-made "found" footage, Cheryl Dunye gives voice and life to lost history 23 years before we see something similar come to life with Marianne in Portrait of a Lady on Fire. "What??" you say. "YES." we respond. Let's talk about it! And... • The 90s vibes!
For the final episode of our first season, we are spending some time with a pioneer of the New Queer Cinema movement, director Gregg Araki. His 1992 film, The Living End, follows two men, Luke and Jon, who both learn that they are HIV positive and join each other on a chaotic and often violent road trip. Their motto: "Fuck everything." The Living End has a solid grasp on the frustrations of gay men on the fringes of society during the AIDS crisis, while not losing the two men's sexuality and humor. Araki blew audiences away at Sundance Film Festival in 1992 when it premiered, impressively filming this movie with a budget of under $20,000! We can think of no better (Living) End to our season than this film! We have often asked ourselves on this podcast what makes a good gay movie? To wrap up this episode, Jake and Kevin take a fond look back on the good, the bad, and the offensive of the films we have watched so far! Thanks to all our listeners for tuning in this season, we will see you in a few months!
Cheryl Dunye (1966-present) was the first Black lesbian to direct a feature film. The movie, called The Watermelon Woman, established her as a leading voice in the New Queer Cinema movement of the 1990's.Special thanks to our exclusive Pride Month sponsor, Mercedes-Benz!

Amy E. Duddleston, ACE has over 30 years of experience in feature and television picture editing. Starting out as an Apprentice Editor, she made her way up to Assistant Editor, working on films like My Own Private Idaho, Corrina, Corrina, and To Die For. As an editor, she has cut 20 features, including High Art, Laurel Canyon, Elegy and Gus Van Sant's remake of Psycho, as well as nearly 80 hours of television on series such as Dexter, The Killing, Vida, Hunters and most recently, Mare of Easttown, for which she received two 2021 Emmy Award nominations. In 2022 she was nominated for two Eddie Awards for limited series editing by the American Cinema Editors, also for Mare of Easttown.She has been a member of the Motion Picture Editors Guild since 1991, and currently serves on the Board of Directors. She is also a member of American Cinema Editors, AMPAS and the Television Academy.On this episode of Screen Culture, Amy recounts how she discovered editing after being “enthralled” by Raging Bull and inspired by the work of editors such as Dede Allen. She shares how her journey as a young apprentice and then assistant editor led her to working out of Gus Van Sant's house during production of the now-iconic My Own Private Idaho, her collaboration with Van Sant on projects including a shot-for-shot remake of Psycho, her work with filmmaker Lisa Cholodenko on films including the groundbreaking High Art, and her recent work in television shaping prestige series such as Mare of Easttown.Amy and Lisa also cover:What it's like to work on a project, like My Own Private Idaho, that becomes culturally iconic: “Most of the time when you're working on something, you just hope people see it”How allowing time for ideas and approaches to percolate is essential in film and TV editing—rushing is the enemy of artThat the process of editing great actors—including Frances McDormand, Kate Winslet, and Patricia Clarkson—is challenging to describe: “You're just trying to follow the rhythms”How Amy turned down an offer to work on Good Will Hunting to edit her friend Lisa Cholodenko's first film, High Art, which became a Sundance sensationHow High Art as an artifact of New Queer Cinema reflected cultural growth, as it's “not a shiny coming-out story,” and how art is essential for “creating space” for new stories and narratives around underrepresented groupsWhat it was like to experience Mare of Easttown's popularity: “The outpouring of love for the show was mind-blowing”Amy is on Twitter as @phantomframe.
Chris Baker talks with Emmy Winner Charlotte Robinson host of OUTTAKE VOICES™ about his new film “The Estate” a dark comedic thriller about real people doing despicable things. If you love movies like John Water's “Serial Mom” this must-see film delivers in the same guilty-pleasure vein. Written and starring Baker the film centers on the spoiled son and the newest wife (Eliza Coupe) of a billionaire patriarch (Eric Roberts) who plot to murder him forming a psychosexual bond with their brutally handsome hitman (Greg Finlay) as they kill in their quest for wealth and recognition. Baker also talks about when he was growing up all he ever wanted to do was to make movies and while he was an avid consumer he noticed the lack of films that reflected our LGBTQ community. When his director and producer asked what kind of film he wanted to do he remembered all the movies like “Cruel Intentions” and “Wild Things” and “Scream” and movies that had that balance of tone where things could be very funny but they could also kill people so Chris came back with the script for “The Estate”. The stellar cast also includes Heather Matarazzo, Rif Hutton, Alexander Billings, Kyle Rezzarday and Ezra Buzzington. The film is directed by James Kapner and produced by Rod Hamilton, Adam Makowka and Alixandra von Renner. We talked to Chris about his inspiration for writing “The Estate” and his spin on our LGBTQ issues. Chris Baker is a New York City native and Harvard graduate where he completed his thesis on the works of the New Queer Cinema auteur Todd Haynes. Baker first found success as a pop singer collecting millions of views on YouTube. He then studied with LA's best at the Upright Citizens Brigade and the Groundlings and had bit parts on Shondaland's “The Catch” and the NBC series “Marry Me” before writing and starring in his 2017 Funny or Die web series “Baker Daily” where he plays an inept cable news anchor who inadvertently gets Trump impeached. “The Estate” is available on Hulu and most VOD streaming outlets.

This week on The OutCast Presented by Outfest, we celebrate the incredible work of New Queer Cinema filmmaking giant Cheryl Dunye as she joins host David Kittredge to explore her entire career, from her early short films all the way to her recent episodic work on series like Lovecraft Country. With her groundbreaking hit The Watermelon Woman, Dunye became the first out Black lesbian to direct a feature film, and created a classic of independent American cinema - but fans of the movie might be surprised to discover her own personal history around working in a Philadelphia video store. From her approach to melding narrative and documentary form to her focus upon centering the stories of Black lesbians in a medium that has rarely made room for them, this is a conversation no film lover should miss! Now, for the 20th Anniversary of her brilliant film Stranger Inside, Outfest is proud to salute the milestone with a free screening and Q&A on Outfest Now from June 21-27. Support this podcast

In this episode, the panel talks about the beginnings of New Queer Cinema, the perils of life as a street hustler, the state of various movie bathrooms, and possible Miami connections to Samuel L. Bronkowitz.
After a few episodes in a row featuring queer adjacent stories made for straight audiences, we're taking a look back at the New Queer Cinema. In the early 90's, filmmakers like Gus Van Sant and Greg Araki reclaimed the road movie for queer audiences. These two tales of narcoleptic hustlers and murderers on the run tapped into a queer culture ignored and left for dead by their government. They take very different stylistic approaches, with wildly varying budgets, but each one captures the early 90's in their own captivating way.

Vom amerikanischen Hinterland in die Großstadt, nach Rom und wieder zurück
Nos anos 90 o cinema LGBT passou por uma grande transformação. Após Stonewall e ainda durante a pandemia do HIV, mais e mais obras com temáticas LGBTs surgiram. O audiovisual precisava ir além de pequenas representações dessas sexualidades e gêneros na tela. Neste momento surge uma nova onda no cinema, onde ser queer era um ato político, e precisava ganhar sua própria narrativa. Para conversar comigo sobre o New Queer Cinema, convidei o cineasta e pesquisador Mateus Nagime. Siga o Confabulando nas redes sociais: @confabulandopod no Instagram e no Twitter!

PLAY PODCAST John Cameron Mitchell's longtime collaborators, picture editor, Brian Kates, sound editor, Ben Cheah and his Animator and Visual Effects Supervisor John Bair, joined Mitchell in conversation about the the origins and the evolution of their work together.

When John Cameron Mitchell landed in the downtown art, theater and music scene in New York City in the 1980's any imaginary border that separated an independent filmmakers sensibility from making punk rock music was arbitrary in that his first major creative work, the eventual Broadway hit musical Hedwig and The Angry Inch was born from a DIY collaboration between himself, lyricist and composer, Stephen Trask and other musicians and actors that , true to the NewYork fighting spirit had created beauty and art out of a sense of anger and alienation of era. Later, the filmic adaptation of Hedwig was recognized as part of the wave of late 90's queer independent American cinema alongside the work of filmmakers like Gus Van Sant Ira Sachs and Todd Haynes. . Each of his Three subsequent films, Shortbus, Rabbithole and How To Talk To Girls at Parties also invited us to fearlessly travel into uncharted territories. His most recent project, Anthem: Homunculus, a musical podcast series for the digital age tells a story about a man crowdfunding his survival. What's consistent throughout every project is that it cultivates a cross-pollination of artists representing different groups all the while emphasizing compatibility and compassion between performers, their worlds and the audiences themselves.

Episodio 5: A través del tiempo Queer Con ocasión del orgullo LGBTQ+, que marcó este pasado junio el cincuenta aniversario de las revueltas de Stonewall, en este quinto episodio nos sumergimos en la ficción especulativa que explora y practica lo queer. Partimos del clásico de Le Guin La mano izquierda de la oscuridad, y de las limitaciones de esta reimaginación concreta del género, ayudadas de El pensamiento heterosexual de Monique Wittig. Repasamos genealogía urbana gay en la obra del neoyorquino Samuel Delany y trazamos vínculos entre su escritura y las reflexiones queer y descoloniales de Hiromi Goto a través de lo que el teórico Jack Halberstam denomina “tiempo queer”. Laura Lazcano nos trae ejemplos tempranos de ciencia ficción queer en el cine de los 70 y 80, el New Queer Cinema y sus exponentes, y nos cuenta cómo se refleja la transexualidad en la ficción actual. Escuchamos además algunas de las jóvenes voces bisexuales del fantástico estatal actual e indagamos en el potencial especulativo del pensamiento transfeminista hispanohablante.

No one plays fucked-up, damaged sexuality quite like Julianne Moore. In SAVAGE GRACE, as the mercurial heiress Barbara Bakeland whose relationship with her son (Eddie Redmayne) goes from over-intimacy to incest, she stops at all the Stations of the Cross of camp insanity. Accosting her philandering husband in an airport while wearing a flagrant red dress? Check. Making her pre-pubescent son recite porn in a foreign language? Check. Having a threesome with said son's male lover? Check. Somehow, despite the hothouse atmosphere, suicide attempts and moody hallucinations, Juli and Eddie somehow manage to make these perverse, insular characters weirdly fun -- that is, until the incestuous sex grows both mechanical and murderous. Brian and Seán debate the merits of this particularly transgressive example of New Queer Cinema but conclude that it is undeniably watchable -- and that no one but Julianne could make all these crazy contradictions cohere -- por el culo!

New Queer Cinema champion, feminist film critic, educator and agitator, B. Ruby Rich introduces Sara Gomez’s 1974 film, De Cierta Manera, a study of the interplay of race, class and gender. The film also provides a jumping off point for Rich to discuss her developing thoughts on Queer representation in cinema, to explore how online viewing platforms are changing film, and to reflect on the continuing influence of her book, Chick Flicks See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
Now onto its third edition, the Scottish Queer International Film Festival has found success fast, and managed to push a few buttons along the way. A great lineup of films catering to a broad spectrum of identities as well as a brilliant programme of lectures, workshops and parties propelled it to the number nine spot on The List's Hot 100 last year. The team behind the SQIFF have continued this trend with the 2017 festival, taking place now in Glasgow.In episode ten of the podcast, our host Gareth K Vile is joined by SQIFF programming committee member Marc David Jacobs to discuss the festival, what queer means and share some recommendations. For part two of the episode we're very lucky to have writer, photographer and underground filmmaker Bruce LaBruce for a wide ranging discussion starting with the New Queer Cinema of the 80s, punk, confrontational filmmaking and the difficulty of being an 'underground' artist in 2017. LaBruce's The Misandrists just made its Scottish premiere on opening night at the GFT, and he'll be DJing at the Drygate on Sunday, so don't miss that.Show notes:00:00:00 – Interview with Marc David Jacobs00:11:01 – Marc's festival recommendations, including Greg Araki's Nowhere00:17:02 – Bruce LaBruce interviewCredits:Festival City Podcast is co-created by Gareth K Vile (host) and Scott Henderson (producer).

This episode of the podcast - produced in association with Club des Femmes and The Barbican - focuses on the recent retrospective and celebration of the American Film Critic, Scholar and Curator B. Ruby Rich (@brrich1) entitled Bring Ruby Rich. The centrepiece of the podcast is a wide ranging interview with Ruby herself covering, among many things, her initial entry into film criticism, her promotion of the cinema as a social space, the legacy of her concept of New Queer Cinema, and the possibility of a political cinema in the digital age. We also interview Sophie Mayer (@tr0ublemayer) and Selina Robertson (@Clubdesfemmes), from Club Des Femmes who organised the event. And there is an in-depth Q&A hosted by Ruby and featuring Yance Ford (@yford) who discusses his first feature, to be released on Netflix in September, entitled Strong Island. An Introduction to B. Ruby Rich - Sophie Mayer - BFI Website "I am draw to the fire" B.Ruby Rich interview by Sophie Mayer - The F Word B Ruby Rich is one of America’s greatest contemporary film critics and academics. Currently working as a professor of Film and Digital Media at the University of California: Santa Cruz, Rich has spent much of her career, both within academia and industry, supporting and celebrating the marginalised voices of moving image. Alongside her academic work, Rich has been International Curator for the 2002 Toronto International Film Festival; has served on juries at the Sundance, Toronto, San Francisco, Oberhausen, Havana, Sydney, and Guadalajara film festivals; and is a member of the advisory board of the Provincetown Film Festival and previously of the Sundance Selection Committee. Rich was also the Director of the Electronic Media and Film Program at the New York State Council on the Arts in charge of supporting non-profit film, video, digital, and radio activities in New York City and throughout New York State in 1981-91. Yance Ford At 19 years old during his sophomore year at Hamilton University, Yance Ford’s life was unequivocally altered by the brutal murder of his older brother, William Ford Jr. Originally working in photography, the devastating events surrounding his brother’s death and the refusal of a white jury to persecute William’s killer, galvanised Ford into becoming a filmmaker. Ford has spent most of his professional career, as a series producer for the PBS documentary programme P.O.V, deciding which submissions make it on to air. After working as a producer for several years, Ford was incited by a conversation with a co-worker to start working on the film that would become Strong Island (2017). Strong Island (Yance Ford, 2017) Yance Ford’s debut feature is a deeply moving, complex film about a family murder, memory, injustice and the institutional racism that continues to pervade America’s legal, social and economic systems. Reminiscent of Errol Morris, Ford unforgettably delivers an investigation into resistant black masculinities, cis and trans, and meditations on raw personal grief. Many thanks to The Barbican for their support in the production of this episode.
B. Ruby Rich, editor of Film Quarterly, professor of film and media studies at UC Santa Cruz and author of the new collection "New Queer Cinema: The Director's Cut" classes up the joint with her presence and her insights. Dave and Alonso argue over whether or not the new movie from the "Drive" guys is art or merely arty.
