Description

For our second episode, we’ll be taking a look at Jack Deveau’s 1974 film “about fifty very compulsive men,” DRIVE. This early feature from Deveau almost defies description, blending camp, raunch, the avant-garde, and a surprisingly biting commentary on gay promiscuity to create a spy film like no other. Over the course of our discussion, we’ll talk about the film’s origins, its many ties to New York’s gay scene, its knotty gender politics, and the history of fisting on film.
