    Description

    Ahead of the 2020 Netflix remake, Jordan and Brooke discuss the original “Rebecca,” Alfred Hitchcock’s first American film and his only Best Picture winner. They dare to ask – has Hollywood changed all that much since the 40s? Why did the Hays Code (the Gays Code) get all up in this script? And did Maxim de Winter actually discover how to get away with murder?Follow us on Twitter! https://twitter.com/QueerQuadrant

    Four-quadrant films are movies designed to appeal to the biggest, widest audience possible. In the process, they can often leave out a lot of LGBTQ+ representation – but end up loaded with subtext. In The Queer Quadrant, hosts Brooke Solomon and Jordan Gustafson examine cinema in all its cultural contexts, and explore why your favorite four-quadrant blockbuster is maybe…not as straight as you think it is.
