Camp is a queer sensibility which has recently begun to enter the mainstream. By viewing a case study of several key camp films of the twentieth and early twenty-first century, it is possible to chronicle its radicalism, and its gradual co-optation by the straight gaze. Camp, while at times reductive, has served to mirror and affirm the vibrancy of the queer experience, making an understanding of its roots essential.
