Directed by Richard Laxton United Kingdom / 2009 / 74 min / DVD /
English In 1975, at the age of 66, openly Gay writer Quentin Crisp
has given up on finding fame and so it comes as rather a surprise
when the British TV film 'The Naked Civil Servant', which
is about his life so far, makes him a celebrity overnight. Refusing
to return to anonymity and following an invitation to New York,
Quentin finds himself in a country where he is welcomed with open
arms and becomes the toast of New York society and a fixture on the
Champagne and peanuts circuit. But, all is not perfect in an ever
changing world.
