C.R.A.Z.Y: A Queer Film Classic

A Queer Film Classic on the 2005 film debut by French-Canadian director Jean-Marc Vallee - best known for Dallas Buyers Club (Truth Entertainment, 2013) and Wild (Fox, 2014) - about a young gay man named Zac growing up in the 1960s. Schwartzwald's book discusses the film's context within a turbulent Quebec and how French Canada is situated between, and conflicted about, American and French popular culture. This thoughtful examination of a seminal queer film will be a valuable resource to film buffs and academics, as well as an inspiring narrative for the LGBTQ+ community.
