Straight Sex and the Silver Screen
8 September 2013
Warning: Spoilers
Looked forward to getting this box set. What a disappointment. The early episodes were reasonably informative. Lots of Hollywood scandal and gossip to go with a good narrative. By the time it got to the 60s the whole thing became very turgid. Gay sex in films or gay themed films were barely mentioned. The only example I can remember being Midnight Cowboy. The whole thing is more about censorship than actual films. There are lots of quotes from obscure people, but no interviews with producers, directors, actors or anyone at all. Just Miss Welch giving a narration. If you really must see this I recommend you rent it not buy it.
