Brando: cruising, masculinity and queer desire in Reflections in a Golden Eye

January 24, 2021UncategorizedCruising, Elizabeth Taylor, John Huston, Marlon Brando, masculinity, Performativity, Queer Desire, Reflections in a Golden Eye, Robert FosterNotesonFilm1

 

The cruising, the relation between performativity and masculinity, the longing and frustration, the contortions of queer desire in the closet —  I hope this all  comes out in the edit itself.  I’ll eventually put some text in it but not much. I feel the video below speaks for itself.

Film

I'm interested in film, writing, culture, and history of thought. This blog is mostly about film but is also a means to develop, share, and engage in a conversation on any or all of these topics.
