The Queen
Directed by Frank Simon
1968, 68min, 35mm
“A gutsy, funny, pathetic, really very moving documentary”
—Roger Ebert, The Chicago Sun-Times
Grove Press distributed this candid, funny, and compassionate look at 1960s queer and drag culture. Larger-than-life drag queens Harlow, Sabrina, and Miss Crystal compete at the 1967 Miss All-America Camp Beauty Pageant, primping, stabbing each other in the back, and strutting their stuff in hopes of capturing the crown.
Tricia's Wedding
Directed by Milton Miron
1971, 33min
Psychedelic San Francisco theater troupe the Cockettes produced this ultra-camp, LSD-fueled spoof of the wedding of Richard Nixon’s daughter.
