How did Rock Hudson become the quintessentially rugged masculine star of 1950s and 60s Hollywood, despite his private life as a promiscuous gay man? In this essential critical guide to Hudson's career, John Mercer reassesses his star persona and performance style to reveal a more complex star identity than has hitherto been understood.
