Amber and Joyce explore the themes of 'Cruising' and its place as a thriller film, as well as how it handles contemporary homosexuality..This is a dark, dark film that was reviled by LGBTQ+ communities at the time and so listening discretion is advised..Content warning: references to gore, sex, suicide, murder and other adult themes..If you liked this episode please consider following the Gay Actually Spotify channel.
