The Silver Screen:
Color Me Lavender

USA, 1997. 100 mins. Water Bearer

A rich and funny meditation on American sexual identity, film history and culture that will change the way you see butch westerns, or the campy charades of Bob Hope and Bing Crosby in their “buddy” road movies forever. Narrated by Dan Butler (Frasier), Silver Screen brilliantly uncovers the unmistakable homoerotic flirtations, and the winking devilish glances that richly imbued the performances of stars like Danny Kaye, Randolph Scott, Cary Grant, and other film legends.

Director: Mark Rappaport
