Overview Ratings & Reviews

Pushed Out of the Closet Without a Parachute by Gunther Allen is a poignant memoir chronicling an unexpected friendship with the legendary Rock Hudson against the vibrant backdrop of 1980s Hollywood. When a chance encounter leads to Gunther performing at Hudson's exclusive parties, it sparks a profound connection that would reshape both their lives.

As their friendship deepens, Gunther's narrative weaves between his own struggles for authentic self-expression and intimate glimpses into Hudson's private world. The story takes a dramatic turn when Gunther discovers Rock's carefully guarded secret—his AIDS diagnosis—which he had concealed from both his partner Marc Christian and Gunther himself. This revelation sets off a chain of events that pulls Gunther into a complex web of deception, as Marc Christian feigns romantic interest in him to gather information for an impending lawsuit.
