I discovered my sexuality with Kurt Russell in Big Trouble in Little China.” This is how Cine Crush begins. The involuntary homoerotic cinema in our sexual awakening, the essay in which journalist Popy Blasco revisits some of the erotic myths that made us discover our orientation through a bunch of commercial films that, in hindsight, appear as involuntarily homoerotic. The book covers hundreds of titles starring idols overflowing with filogay eroticism, invisible to the heteronormative eye; actors and characters already legendary who, while inspiring admiration in some, sparked desire in the LGTBIQ+ community. In addition to establishing the differences between LGTBIQ+ cinema and homoerotic or filogay cinema, Popy Blasco offers us a thorough review of many of the film and television stars who have marked the boomer generation, Generation X, millennials, and Gen Z.","brand":"Dos Bigotes","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55302225002840,"sku":"9788412466577","price":19.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0925\/8464\/0856\/files\/cine-crush-popy-blasco-4427569.jpg?v=1761779665"},{"product_id":"the-rocky-horror-picture-show-transgresion-contracultura-y-peliculas-de-medianoche","title":"The Rocky Horror Picture Show: Transgresión, contracultura y películas de medianoche","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Rocky Horror Picture Show, the quintessential cult musical whose legacy is passed down from generation to generation, not only revolutionized cinema and theater but also left a profound mark on pop culture thanks to its irreverent spirit and a queer perspective ahead of its time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJournalist and cultural chronicler Popy Blasco dives into the Rocky Horror phenomenon with tons of glitter, unraveling its multiple layers with contagious passion in an essay that combines film analysis, personal chronicle, and historical reflection. Throughout the book, he tells us about the birth of the work from the imagination of Richard O'Brien, how it transitioned from stage to the big screen, and the process by which, after its initial box office failure, it became an unexpected success in midnight screenings, establishing the concept of audience participation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAdditionally, the author examines in detail the soundtrack, marked by glam and rock influences and the overflowing camp aesthetic of a film full of nods to B (and Z) science fiction and horror movies. He also explores the impact the film has had on counterculture in general and on the LGTBIQ+ community in particular, which has embraced it as a space of rebellion and identity expression with much of a liturgical nature. He also introduces us to its unforgettable characters—Frank-N-Furter, Brad, Janet, Riff Raff, and company—inviting us to dance the \"Time Warp\" for all eternity.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Editorial Dos Bigotes","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56695723295064,"sku":"LIB-TH-ED-493","price":18.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0925\/8464\/0856\/files\/9791399057935.jpg?v=1770762549"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.plasticbooks.uk\/en\/collections\/libros-popy-blasco.oembed","provider":"Plastic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
