CONTENT WARNING:

In this revisionist documentary, actor Eric Farr re-creates the character of Rock Hudson in order to take a look back at his films. It compares the actor’s screen (and public) image with his real life and shows certain scenes, lines and situations in his films to insinuate that Hudson may have been gay.

This film is presented in English with English subtitles.

Mark Rappaport’s brilliant film-clip bio of the late movie star imaginatively examines the cinematic vs. the real closeted life of Hudson.
