THE DETECTIVE | reinterpretation by Jim de Seve<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

A reinterpretation of the 1968 film THE DETECTIVE, Jim de Seve’s mission was to strip the movie of all but its gay content. Thus we skip merrily from Sinatra flipping through physique magazines to naked interrogations downtown. The self-loathing homosexuals of the film speak to Hollywood’s view of gaydom. It is tempered, however, with a Sinatra oscillating between disgust and compassion. “These people are not murderers,” he exclaims to a too eager Robert Duvall who’s roughing up some rough trade. Within a few scenes Sinatra is holding hands with a psychotic faggot who he goads into admitting that he is, in fact, a murderer!<\/em>

TRANSGENDER – THE PATH TO ONE’S IDENTITY | produced by Todd Cross<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n
