Full Description
In The Shadowgraph James Cihlar explores the ways images, performances, and memories shape and inform LGBTQ identity. Golden-age Hollywood cinema - in particular the career of fiercely independent actress Barbara Stanwyck - provides the screen on which Cihlar projects characters and stories bravely, even defiantly, performed. Cihlar's commentary on individual films - as well as on human experience and desire - is intense, smart, and right on target.
