ABSTRACT This essay looks at the critical reception of Australian queer cinema demonstrating the difference in reviews of queer Australian films. The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert (Elliot, Stephan. 1994. The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert. Sydney: Roadshow Distribution) and The Sum of Us (Dowling, Kevin, and Geoff Burton. 1994. The Sum of Us. Sydney: Southern Star) will be compared to films that came later in the 1990s, notably Love and Other Catastrophes (Croghan, Emma-Kate. 1996. Love and Other Catastrophes. Sydney: Fox Searchlight), The Well (Lang, Samantha. 1997. The Well. Sydney: Southern Star) and Head On (Kokkinos, Ana. 1998. Head On. Melbourne: Umbrella Entertainment). These later films managed to generate buzz on the queer film festival circuit as well as at general international film festivals. Their queerness attracts international LGBTQ audiences while, secondly, genre-related elements have the potential to attract a wider cinephile audience. I will utilise paratextual elements, particularly reviews during their film festival and theatrical runs, to demonstrate how they cross-over to wider audiences. In investigating their framing and reception, these films increasingly engage audiences through their genre signifiers. This essay demonstrates that the discourse around Australian queer cinema has matured to offer multi-faceted perspectives.

不仅仅是同性恋双关语:澳大利亚酷儿电影评论的不断变化的性质

摘要本文着眼于澳大利亚酷儿电影的热烈欢迎,表明了澳大利亚酷儿电影评论的差异。Priscilla历险记,沙漠之女王(Elliot,Stephan。1994年。Priscilla历险记,沙漠之女王。悉尼:路演分布)和我们之和(Dowling,Kevin和Geoff Burton,1994年)。我们将《悉尼:南方之星》与1990年代后期的电影进行比较,特别是《爱与其他灾难》(克罗汉,艾玛·凯特,1996年。《爱与其他灾难》。悉尼:福克斯探照灯),《井》(朗,萨曼莎) 1997年,《悉尼之井:南方之星》和《前进》(Ana,1998年,科基诺斯)。这些后来的电影在酷儿电影节巡回演出以及一般的国际电影节上引起了轰动。他们的怪异吸引了国际LGBTQ观众,其次,与体裁相关的元素有可能吸引更广泛的电影爱好者。我将利用超文本元素,特别是在他们的电影节和舞台表演期间的评论,来展示它们如何传播给更多的观众。这些电影在调查其取景和接受程度时,通过其类型指示符越来越多地吸引观众。本文表明,围绕澳大利亚酷儿电影的论述已经成熟,可以提供多方面的观点。这些电影在调查其取景和接受程度时,通过其类型指示符越来越多地吸引观众。本文表明,围绕澳大利亚酷儿电影的论述已经成熟,可以提供多方面的观点。这些电影在调查其取景和接受程度时,通过其类型指示符越来越多地吸引观众。本文表明,围绕澳大利亚酷儿电影的论述已经成熟,可以提供多方面的观点。
