FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles)

Rating: 4/4 --
The gender identity and racial undercurrents of "The Queen" have a prescient quality, foreshadowing some of the tensions that the LGBTQ community is dealing with today.

Product Description:
Predating the Stonewall milestone in Gay Rights, this documentary goes behind the scenes to witness the catty and campy competition of the mascaraed and sequined male contestants in the "Miss All-America Camp Beauty Pageant" of 1967. Celebrity judges include Edie Sedgwick, George Plimpton, Terry Southern and Andy Warhol.
