30 Days of Classic Queer Hollywood

Day 16: George Cukor (1899 - 1983)

George Cukor was a legendary, Oscar-winning director in classic Hollywood. His most famous films include Holiday (1938), The Women (1939), The Philadelphia Story (1940), Gaslight (1944), and My Fair Lady (1964). Cukor was a gay man, and his homosexuality was an open secret in Hollywood. Cukor had several relationships with men, but never settled down with a particular partner.

Throughout his career, people referred to Cukor as a "women's director". While he did direct films with strong female characters, this was more a nod to his sexuality, implying that his films are more feminine and that actresses felt safe with him because he was gay.

By the mid-1930s, Cukor had become an unofficial leader of Hollywood's gay subculture. He hosted regular parties at his beautiful home (redecorated by William Haines), including many gatherings of the entertainment industry's closeted homosexuals.
