Provincetown Film Art Series: Mad About the Boy: The Noël Coward Story
The Provincetown Film Art Series, now in its 18th year, is sponsored by the Provincetown Film Society (PFS) and Provincetown Art Association and Museum (PAAM) and curated and hosted by film scholar Howard Karren. Films in the series, both recent and vintage, are chosen around central themes, but the focus is on films about artists and creativity, and films that are themselves works of art.
Mad About the Boy: The Noël Coward Story (2023)
Written and directed by Barnaby Thompson. Narrated by Alan Cumming. Documentary. 1 hour, 35 minutes.
This impressive film portrait of theater maestro Noël Coward, a lifelong professional wit and the playwright of Blithe Spirit, Private Lives, Design for Living, and Present Laughter, makes good use of archival material and fully claims Coward as an exalted part of queer history.
