Popping culture: Bruce LaBruce blabs it up in documentary

Angry young homos, unite!

The preacher behind the pulpit would like to speak.

His mandate: fagdom.

Bruce LaBruce has been making films for more than 20 years, and a new documentary, Bruce LaBruce: The Advocate for Fagdom, has recently been released on DVD.

LaBruce’s films are funny, witty, pornographic, violent, sexy, incendiary. It’s nice to see that someone has taken the time to speak with him, his film cohorts, his muses and his friends to discuss the work and the man behind it.
