In Minute 13 of The Whole Shebang, Jenny and Mike look at the importance of bisexuality to glam rock, rock and roll in general, and to Velvet Goldmine, the first appearance in this film of Ewan McGregor as Curt Wild, the performative queerness of David Bowie and the matter-of-fact queerness of Lou Reed, the hippie generation’s poetic sex theoretician Norman O. Brown, the liminality of queer history, and the Sun newspaper reporting on the Brian Slade hoax.
