" Superstar" became a cult classic.
Haynes' feature directorial debut," Poison"( 1991), a provocative, three- part exploration of AIDS- era queer perceptions and subversions, established him as a formidable talent and figure of a new transgressive cinema.
" Poison" won the Sundance Film Festival's Grand Jury Prize and is regarded as a seminal work of New Queer Cinema.

" Safe" was later voted the best film of the 1990s by" The Village Voice" Film Poll.
Haynes' next feature," Velvet Goldmine"( 1998), is a tribute to the 1970s glam rock era, drawing heavily on the rock histories and mythologies of David Bowie, Iggy Pop, and Lou Reed.

I Want Your
Love is the title of both a 2010 short film and a 2012 feature- length film.

The drama films both revolve around the friends and ex-lovers of Jesse Metzger, a gay man in his mid-thirties who is forced to move back to his hometown from San Francisco due to financial reasons.
