TAB HUNTER CONFIDENTIAL
In the 50s and 60s, Tab Hunter reigned as Hollywood’s ultimate male heartthrob. He was featured in dozens of films, including Island of Desire, Return to Treasure Island and Damn Yankees, and was number one on the music charts. Natalie Wood, Debbie Reynolds and Sophia Loren were just a few of the actresses he was romantically linked to and it seemed like nothing could damage his skyrocketing career. But Tab had a secret that threatened to implode and destroy him: he’s gay. Award-winning filmmaker Jeffrey Schwarz reveals Hunter’s secret life and traces his dizzying career, including his early success in Hollywood and his resurgence in the 80s with John Waters’ Polyester and Grease 2. Featuring rare footage and provocative interviews with friends and co-stars including Clint Eastwood, George Takei, Debbie Reynolds, Robert Wagner and more, Tab Hunter Confidential is more relevant than ever in today’s obsessive, star-driven, sexuality-speculating media.
POLYESTER
Director John Waters broke new boundaries with this hilariously trashy tale of suburban misadventure featuring his favorite leading lady Divine who plays a dissatisfied suburban housefrau who longs for a little romance in her life because her husband (Tab Hunter) and children drive her crazy.
