4. The history of gays in films...including innuendo and censorship.
It's quite revealing and tells us all what gays have had to struggle with for a long, long time.

Art reflects life.

7. Or . . .
try www.half.com -- you can get really good prices on older books and CDs and DVDs there.

I just bought the 20th Anniversary Edition of "The Times of Harvey Milk" there for something like $11.00.

Most of the DVDs are new, with wrapping still intact.

9. An excellent, excellent film.
Based on the groundbreaking book by Vito Russo.

Yes, this is a history of how gays and lesbians were depicted in film...from the silent era to today.

Quite educational.
