Review Quote Nick Rees-Roberts' volume is a welcome addition to French cinema studies. It is a thorough documentation and analysis of representations of queerness in contemporary French film and is a work that engages a wide variety of subjects including the depiction of minorities, independent and auteur films, and pornography. The author ably shows the intersections between queer subjects and AIDS, republican values, identity politics, inscriptions of sexualities in daily life, and other contemporary concerns. This volume is a valuable addition to our understanding of post-modern French culture and will be of great value to students and researchers alike.
