About the book

This is a timely and comprehensive introduction to one of the most "cutting-edge" film movements of the 1990s. Tracing its impact on representations of gender and sexuality in both independent and mainstream cinema culture, this volume explores how lesbian, gay, and queer filmmaking radically reclaimed or subverted the negative stereotypes, genres, and narratives of the past, envisioning an unapologetic and irreverent new horizon beyond hetero-normative politics, pleasure, and identity. Films include: Poison (1991), My Own Private Idaho (1991), and The Living End (1992).
