It's Pink, Mama

I mentioned back in January that I went to see the new 4K restoration of James Bidgood's queer classic Pink Narcissus at MoMA -- well the thing's been floating about a bit since then, screening at a few spots around the country, , and now we've got the happy word that it's taking up residency at the Metrograph theater here in NYC for an entire week beginning on April 11th. Not to be missed! It looked so dreamy at MoMA that my eyes wept ejaculate. You can buy tickets right here. And I have no doubt that there will be a physical release of this soon, presumably some time this year, so if you can't make it to NYC just be patient!

But thankfully that's not the only happy Bidgood news I have to share -- a new book of his iconic and gay-as-the-hills photography is being released next week! Don't know why I'm just learning this today but it's titled Dreamlands and you can pre-order a copy here. The cover is seen below. I saw a photography show of Bidgood's gorgeous and fantastical and ass-heavy work in 2019 and you can see some photos I took of it right here. Gay legend!
