One of two new Queer Film Classics, the series started in 2009 dedicated to monographs on the most important and influential films about and by LGBTQ people. There are 13 titles currently in the series, including Death in Venice, Strangers on a Train, and Law of Desire.
C. R. A. Z. Y. (2005) is the film debut of French Canadian director Jean-Marc Vallée, who went on to direct Emily Blunt in The Young Victoria (2009) and, more recently, directed Matthew McConaughey and Jared Leto to Academy Awards in Dallas Buyers Club (2013). C. R. A. Z. Y. is an entertaining melodrama set in the 1960s and 70s, about a young gay man with four brothers and a conservative, homophobic father who tries to help “cure” his son when he discovers his penchant for other men.
Schwartzwald’s narrative situates C. R. A. Z. Y. in the history of Quebecois cinema, and as an allegory of Quebec’s own struggle to discover its identity, situated as it is between European French and English Canadian culture, and as a Catholic society making way for the modern age.
