{"product_id":"9780415923293","title":"Screened Out : Playing Gay in Hollywood from Edison to Stonewall","description":"Rapacious dykes, self-loathing closet cases, hustlers, ambiguous sophisticates, and sadomasochistic rich kids: most of what America thought it knew about gay people it learned at the movies. A fresh and revelatory look at sexuality in the Great Age of movie making, \u003cem\u003eScreened Out\u003c\/em\u003e shows how much gay and lesbian lives have shaped the Big Screen. Spanning popular American cinema from the 1900s until today, distinguished film historian Richard Barrios presents a rich, compulsively readable analysis of how Hollywood has used and depicted gays and the mixed signals it has given us: Marlene in a top hat, Cary Grant in a negligee, a pansy cowboy in \u003cem\u003eThe Dude Wrangler\u003c\/em\u003e. Such iconoclastic images, Barrios argues, send powerful messages about tragedy and obsession, but also about freedom and compassion, even empowerment.","brand":"Routledge","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45387279925327,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":1925.0,"currency_code":"TWD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.com.tw\/products\/9780415923293","provider":"Books Kinokuniya Taiwan","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
