A Great Overview..., Sep 18 2010
By Steven J. Weller - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: NEW Fabulous (DVD) (DVD)
This doc from the Independent Film Channel is a surprisingly comprehensive look at the history of gay, lesbian, and transgendered cinema (mostly in America) over the course of, well, the last century. The infamous Hayes Code prohibited the representation of gay characters starting in the 1930s, so there's a fairly large blank spot in that history, but this program recognizes the contributions of non-commercial indies like Kenneth Anger, and the whole thing picks up speed in the 1970s with some of the very first truely 'indie' productions. Entertainingly presented, with talking head input from a wealth of GLBT film makers and a lot of clips, this is at least a good solid beginning to understanding where "queer cinema" has come from and where it's headed. Very worthwhile!

Fabulous, Sep 16 2009
By Jennifer Pouliot - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: NEW Fabulous (DVD) (DVD)
This documentary was good. It was a little long in some places, but was still entertaining. The special features were fun; it featureas some coming out stories of some of my favourite queer actors (Jane Lynch, this means you!). A good purchase for those interested in queer cinema.

Interesting Documentary On Queer Cinema, Mar 14 2012
By David R. Burris "ScorpioDave" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: NEW Fabulous (DVD) (DVD)
I had wanted to purchase this for some time. It is well produced and interesting. From my point of view it seems to focus more on the lesbian angle regarding queer cinema than other documentaries that I own. It was well worth buying and was a welcome addition to my queer cinema documentary library.
Listmania!
