Western, detective, horror, science fiction, road movie, peplum, intelligence, musical, parody, thriller, fantasy, melodrama, film policy, film office, erotic movie, porn movie, film activist : the film industry has continued to draw and redraw contours of what is commonly called "genres" to consolidate all the films that are believed to have enough common characteristics to form very stable categories. But the establishment - even in a universe can be regulated as that of the film - does not satisfy these well-defined categories. She likes to work around gender, to divert or to reinvent them. Criticism, itself, has tried all kinds of epithets to reclassify it has always considered too vague to give us his comedies bittersweet, "his" fantastic ordinary "and other" gay melodramas.
