Reimagining the Face of HIV/AIDS Conclusion Bibliography IndexReviewsThis illuminating book addresses the intersection of the biopic with queer concerns and productively expands our understanding of both. Tracing the emergence of the queer biopic, Stamm considers how it ultimately offers moments of possibility taken up by queer filmmakers to rewrite themselves into history by engaging audiences' fascination with others. Adopting a provocative range of approaches from the psychoanalytic and biomedical to the historical and archival, Stamm offers a generative, lively discussion on the queer biopic's simultaneous preservation and reimagination of queer history. * Sarah Keller, Associate Professor of Art and Cinema Studies at University of Massachusetts Boston and author of Barbara Hammer: Pushing Out of the Frame * Stamm convincingly demonstrates the deep intersection of queer film and biographical narratives, significantly revising our previous understanding of both.

Creekmur, Associate Professor of Film Studies and Gender, Women's and Sexuality Studies at the University of Iowa * The Queer Biopic in the AIDS Era highlights the important contribution of the New Queer Cinema filmmakers to the genre; this study, by extension, also offers a new lens by which to perceive the project of those filmmakers. * Eric Hughes, European Journal of American Studies * This illuminating book addresses the intersection of the biopic with queer concerns and productively expands our understanding of both.
