Joan Crawford young 1933

Beautiful lady and a great movie

Great highlight reel, just missed 'Cool and the Crazy' one of the very best.

iconic

After I watched her first rant, and they showed the guy who was listening to her, the look on his face was WHOA! I agree. Bette could definitely talk fast.

Asta ❤😂 love this movie

Rochester Ny's legend

If you were a butch Gay male, you didn't stick out, and there's no comedy to sticking to convention.

Richard Egan was sooo hot in this film

Axel in Harlem but its a 1930s pre-code film

Dorothy Mackaill is something else

Could you slow down the title cards separating each subsection please? They’re honestly pretty tough to read without pausing. Otherwise, great info and interesting video!

If this representation of gay men was supposed to ridicule them, how come effeminate flamboyancy has become so easily adopted by many modern gay men? Do they not know their personality and behavior was basically created as a false hyperbole to make fun of the community a century ago?? **Or going further into example, the very “fruity” gay men depicted in shows and movies (loving musicals, the higher pitch nasally voice with a slight lisp, etc insert more hyperbolic stereotypes) in the 80’s and 90’s?

Brilliant! My favourite isn't here...Over the Moon, a British comedy from 1937 in glorious Technicolor starring Merle Oberon. Peter Haddon is featured as Lord Petcliffe who is described as 'an interior decorator by profession, a social organiser by choice and, well, never mind, dear, you'll see.' When Lord Petcliffe languishes in his extravagantly furnished bedroom, wearing fluffy pink slippers, he complains to a friend: 'We had a pageant last night. I wore myself to a positive shadow over some dreadful charity.' A photo of him can be found in Stephen Bourne's trailblazing book 'Brief Encounters - Lesbians & Gays in British Cinema 1930-1971'.

If you haven't seen the "Daddy's Boy" parody in Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, you might want to get Googling now 😂

My favourite go-to film and free on youtube.

I'm sure that the person who put this vid up has seen "The Celluloid Closet".. (gay men and women in film), narrated by big stars like Tom Hanks, Lily Tomlin etc., which is a very mature documentary).. Also, a lot of people don't know that the documentary that I'm talking about, had a companion book, called "The VINYL Closet", gays in the music biz, from black lesbians in Harlem from the 1920's, singin' the blues at speakeasies (while dressed like men), up through the 1990's (KD Lang, Melissa E., etc). You should check out BOTH the film and book.. :)

The posey comment is pretty funny to be fair, seeing as men wearing a posey in their breast pocket back then was the same as wearing a pride pin right now 😂😂 (at least, I think it was a posey)

Goofy monsters are great 😂

These men are being “swishy”.🤭

🥰Liz in Full Bitch mode--the caftans, the blouses, the burlesque. She really is our Earth Mother. Too bad Secret Ceremony always gets copyright strikes; she had some humdingers in that one, too.

I thought Dall overacted, with his facial expressions a lot, plot is disturbing to say the least, worth watching tho!

I thought I could get over it, but I'm still heartbroken. She could drive, bob her hair, smoke with long ashes and long lashes--she could do it all.

Ah, my favorites amongst scenes from Barbara Stanwyck movies. Her emotional side was sensational. Always liked it since childhood. Thanks for posting.

Bobby Watson, who was prominently displayed here in the movie Manhattan Parade later went on portray Hitler in nine movies, more than any other actor.

MY God she was Out of this world💔🌹😓

And this is why I love Barbara Stanwyck ❤

That wiggle had no wiggle 😂

Me and my Dad's jaws dropped during that Public Enemy (1931) One thing I love about it is that Jimmy's character didn't act like a homophobic asshole in response to being hit on.

10/10 for this effort. Most enjoyed!

These are the men I'm into

As a gay man i love this I need this Where's the sisy characters when i need them

5:12 my new favourite scene ever

You forgot the old gay character in the 1931 Gloria Swanson film.

Homosexuality is still illegal in a different style today.

Consider Horatio Alger Jr.'s endless series of boys' books, typically sort of juvenile Dickens stories. His heroes often form close male-male bonds, even resembling marriage in some cases. But he also has many effeminate or 'sissy' characters portrayed as contemptible or even villainous. Other boys-book authors (e.g., R. H. Barbour, author of many sports-themed books) show the same pattern: bromances on the one hand, and the rejection of effeminacy on the other. It seems to me that until quite recently, the idea of the hyper-masculine gay stereotypes like bears and leathermen would have been literally (and I use that word carefully) inconceivable by almost everyone (including conventionally masculine men who tried to understand their own erotic drives).

absolutely no one on earth has homophobia.... homoaedia but not phobia .

Mesmerizing.

Yikes ! Add this to the stereotype of African and indigenous people…let’s not forget Charlie Chan…. Not a good vibe America :-/
