Welcome back to our queer film retrospective, “A Gay Old Time.” In this week’s column, we’re revisiting 1968’s, The Killing Of Sister George, a campy, lesbian follow-up to Whatever Happened To Baby Jane?It’s almost ironic how much of queer culture (particularly gay male) gravitates around women. So much of the entertainment—and camp!—that we consider staples for our community is about larger-than-life female characters, actresses, and singers performing at the very peak of (and often beyond) their abilities.
