\u201cR<\/span>ock had a sizable dick,\u201d says Joe Carberry, a former lover of Rock Hudson. \u201cHe tried to put that thing up my ass and I couldn\u2019t do it!\u201d Frankly, these are the details that make Rock Hudson: All That Heaven Allowed \u2013 a new documentary about the quintessential Hollywood hunk \u2013 sing. Hudson was a figurehead for a particular era of heterosexual-appearing on-screen beefcakery and though we now know a great deal about his private reality, he has always remained an elusive figure \u2013 an idea rather than a reality. Rather compellingly, director Stephen Kijak does not use his documentary to uncover the \u2018real\u2019 Hudson; instead he gives us an understanding of the actor by drawing on the negative space around him.<\/p>\n

Neither does Kijak attempt to disabuse us of the notion that Rock Hudson was anything but a fluke, a Midwestern handyman who was elevated to an A-list star by dint of his good looks. On the set of Hudson\u2019s debut film, Fighter Squadron, it allegedly took almost 40 takes to shoot his single line. Yet Kijak is extremely forgiving of Hudson and All That Heaven Allowed brims with affection for Hudson\u2019s off-camera life. Because there\u2019s not a comprehensive amount of footage of Hudson\u2019s private world, he relies on the anecdotes of the people who knew him: people like Carberry; his long-time boyfriend Lee Garlington; his Dynasty co-star Linda Evans and author Armistead Maupin. They paint the picture of a gentleman, someone who lit up parties and doted on his friends. This was the Hudson people actually knew \u2013 someone quite far removed from the MGM-crafted image history knows.<\/p>\n

Investigating how Hudson consistently maintained his dual life, All That Heaven Allowed puts it down to two things. Firstly, that Hudson, despite his humble beginnings, quickly and savvily adapted to the Hollywood machine, and secondly, he was such a likeable guy the people around him painstakingly protected him. It\u2019s perhaps an overly generous reading of him (Kijak isn\u2019t massively concerned with bringing light and shade to Hudson) but the documentary is alive with character, particularly when compared to Mad About the Boy: The No\u00ebl Coward Story, released earlier this year, which was essentially an unspicy taped reading of Coward\u2019s Wikipedia page. Here, Hudson is brought to life through gossip \u2013 he allegedly couldn\u2019t stop flirting with James Dean during the filming of Giant \u2013 and you come away with an intimate sense of what Hudson was like at parties. To his friends, this was Hudson in his element.<\/p>\n

His death and the circumstances leading up to it are treated rather straightforwardly. Kijak keeps the tone hopeful, reminding us of the generosity of those around Hudson like Elizabeth Taylor and Linda Evans, whilst underscoring the evil of Ronald and Nancy Reagan\u2019s response to the AIDS crisis. Disappointingly there\u2019s little exploration of Hudson\u2019s Republican politics and the ideological contradictions within him. The end of his life was a tragedy, but one that Kijak could have unpacked in greater depth, particularly in a documentary that\u2019s shy of two hours.<\/p>\n

Still, Rock Hudson: All That Heaven Allowed is a solid if single-minded documentary. As an account of Hudson the Hollywood party boy and lothario it is comprehensive, though those expecting a more complex account of the star\u2019s inconsistencies may find themselves shortchanged.<\/p>\n
