Vincente Minnelli
Levy wrote the first comprehensive biography of Vincente Minnelli, "Vincente Minnelli: Hollywood's Dark Dreamer" in 2009. In this book, he argued that Minnelli's sexual identity is a crucial variable in understanding the kinds of narratives and visual styles of his films, particularly his melodramas, such as The Bad and The Beautiful, and the more personal and intimate Tea and Sympathy.
