THE KILLING OF SISTER GEORGE

QUEER CINEMA: LOST & FOUND SERIES

march 25, 2026 | AFS CINEMA

An aging lesbian actress (Beryl Reid) explodes into hysteria when faced with the prospect of being written out of the soap opera that made her a household name and the disintegration of her longtime relationship with a younger woman in Robert Aldrich’s adaptation of the hit play. Famously given an X rating solely for its lesbian subject matter — despite featuring no explicit sex or nudity — THE KILLING OF SISTER GEORGE is a fascinating example of both Hollywood homophobia and exquisite camp. 

This is a partner screening with our friends at AFS Cinema. The Queer Cinema: Lost & Found series is a monthly program by Archivist and historian Elizabeth Purchell (of Ask Any Buddy) who explores the history of queer cinema and its many groundbreaking pioneers in this refreshing behind-the-scenes look at the evolution of queer representation on screen.

 


Based in Austin, Texas — aGLIFF’s mission is to create positive and visible film programs relevant to the lives of LGBTQ+ identified people, to educate the community about LGBTQ+ issues, to produce and promote the best in LGBTQ+ community building events, and to support and partner with other organizations to enlighten the public.
