When Tab Hunter swung through P.Town recently to launch the kickoff of Provincetown International Film Festival #PIFF16 he sat down with queerguru for P.T.V. one sunny afternoon to talk about his rather extraordinary life since he was Hollywood’s biggest Box Office Star in the 1950’s. This totally disarmingly charming man who celebrates his 85th Birthday today (July 11th) is an old-fashioned extremely handsome gentleman who whilst he may not like to kiss-and-tell, he did take time to share stories of both the good old days, and the even more exciting ones that followed.
We also got to spend some time with producer Allan Glaser, Tab’s partner for the past 30 years, and that interview will be published very soon.
During #PIFF16queergurusnared an interview with Everett B. Arthur one of the stars of the HBO documentary SUITED. This is the story of Bindle and Keep a small tailoring company in New York who are part of whole new growing breed of clothiers who cater specifically for the transgender community. It is a joyful tale of how having the opportunity to having non-gender specific custom-made clothing so impacts peoples lives. Directed by newbie filmmaker Jason Benjamin and produced by Lena Dunham,
queerguru talks to Amy Geller the co-director (with Allie Humenuk ) of The Guys Next Door about their compelling new documentary which captures the remarkable heartwarming journey of gay married couple Erik and Sandro who get the family that they always wanted when their best friend Rachel acts as their surrogate twice
The interview for P.T.V. was at #PIFF16. The movie is currently playing the Film Festival circuit : further details from http://asquaredfilms.com/
Writer/director Nathan Adloff liberally uses his own life for the inspiration for the stories of the movies he makes. He has followed up the truly delightful ‘Nate & Margaret’ with a new tender coming-of-age story called MILES about a young gay boy who discovers that his own route over the rainbow is playing in a girl’s volley ball team. On the eve of the East Coast Premiere of the movie at Provincetown International Film Festival he stopped by Sage Inn and Lounge to talk to queerguru about making Miles and so much more.
