Over the decades, gay cinema has reflected the queer community´s journey from persecution to emancipation. This shift has been matched by the shift of gay films from the fringes to the mainstream: in 2005 this move was so pronounced that that years Oscars were referred to as ´The Gay Oscars´. In this, the definitive guide to Gay Cinema, this history is told in all its complexity.
