If nostalgia is the impossibility of a return to origin, queer nostalgia is the salvage of a symbolic past. This program proposes a new constellation of Latina/o American fascination with Hollywood starlets: José Rodríguez Soltero’s classicLupe(1966); the celebration of decadentism in the Colombian filmPasión y Muerte de Margarita Gautier(1964), by Enrique Grau & Luís Ernesto Arocha; and other films that pay homage to Joan Crawford, Marlene Dietrich, Greta Garbo, and Lupe Vélez, replete with campy nods to the star system.
