Out of the Past: The Struggle for Gay and Lesbian Rights in America (1998)



Out of the Past: The Struggle for Gay and Lesbian Rights in America (1998)


Editorial Reviews


From The New Yorker Director Jeff Dupre's solid documentary on the gay community is one part history lesson (profiles of obscure gay and lesbian historical figures) and one part smart reporting (a young lesbian attempts to form a Gay-Straight Alliance club in Salt Lake City). The film, written by Michelle Ferrari, is a dialogue between the past and the present, and an emotionally textured treatise on alienation and marginalization which is intelligent and, thankfully, entertaining. -Bruce Diones Copyright © 2006 The New Yorker
