Le numéro constitue la première étude d'importance consacrée au Film d'Art, société de production de films fondée en 1908, dont le nom apparaît pourtant dans toutes les histoires du cinéma avec son célèbre "Assassinat du duc de Guise". En se fondant sur des archives totalement inédites et sur les films conservés, qui pour la plupart sont analysés ici pour la première fois, les auteurs mettent au jour de nombreux aspects inconnus d'une production qu’on a souvent hâtivement qualifiée de « théâtrale » : inventivité en matière de scénarios, influence du music-hall et des spectacles dansés, aspiration à de nouvelles formes de dispositif spectaculaire intégrant le cinéma. Au-delà de la seule société du Film d’Art, plusieurs articles s’attachent à sa répercussion dans la production française et à sa réception dans les pays voisins. Enfin, le numéro offre la première filmographie de référence du Film d’Art.

A writer casts an acerbic, queer eye on the greats and the not-so-greats of Hollywood's Golden Age. Ronnie Reagan's bizarre legs are sufficient reason to watch John Loves Mary (1949), a picture so ordinaire it needs this bizarre touch. When the faces in this historic still from the Museum of Modern Art are cropped, Reagan could pass for a butch lez from the Women's Army Corps who is about to put the old make on a fluff (Patricia Neal). Cruising the Movies was Boyd McDonald's “sexual guide” to televised cinema, originally published by the Gay Presses of New York in 1985. The capstone of McDonald's prolific turn as a freelance film columnist for the magazine Christopher Street, Cruising the Movies collects the author's movie reviews of 1983–1985. This new, expanded edition also includes previously uncollected articles and a new introduction by William E. Jones.Eschewing new theatrical releases for the “oldies” once common as cheap programing on independent television stations, and more interested in starlets and supporting players than leading actors, McDonald casts an acerbic, queer eye on the greats and not-so-greats of Hollywood's Golden Age. Writing against the bleak backdrop of Reagan-era America, McDonald never ceases to find subversive, arousing delights in the comically chaste aesthetics imposed by the censorious Motion Picture Production Code of 1930–1968. Better known as the editor of the Straight to Hell paperback series―a compendia of real-life sexual stories that is part pornography, part ethnography―McDonald in his film writing reveals both his studious and sardonic sides. Many of the texts in Cruising the Movies were inspired by McDonald's attentive inspection of the now-shuttered MoMA Film Stills Archive, and his columns gloriously capture a bygone era in film fandom. Gay and subcultural, yet never reducible to a zany cult concern or mere camp, McDonald's “reviews” capture a lost art of queer cinephilia, recording a furtive obsession that once animated gay urban life. With lancing wit, Cruising celebrates gay subculture's profound embrace of mass culture, seeing film for what it is―a screen that reflects our fantasies, desires, and dreams.
