Initially this was filmmaking for his own pleasure, but it wasn’t long before a growing audience wanted to see more, although at the time his work was considered far too subversive and corruptive for general viewing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePeter’s story spans eight decades of the “gay experience” both in the USA and UK with first-hand experiences from World War II to Stonewall and beyond. The film PETER DE ROME charts his remarkable journey from cinematic outlaw to celebrated film icon with contributions from collaborators and some of those he has influenced. The film uses extensive extracts from Peter’s varied and often explicit work, from his early 8mm experiments in the 1960s to his extraordinary feature films to create a portrait of a true original.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePETER DE ROME celebrates the life and work of one of the UK’s most charismatic filmmakers. His work was daring yet iconic, his charm simple yet irresistible and his persuasive abilities simply unmatchable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e“If my films had been shown in England when I made them I would have been arrested.
