Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaA reporter mentions that Tab Hunter's popularity was with the so-called "baby boomers"; however, the term refers to children born post war, including myself born in 1947 which would have made me nine years old at the height of his popularity. Actually, his fans were the post-depression/war babies who would have been teenagers in the middle 1950's. Baby-boomers are 1946-1964 born, and they absolutely were a part of his fandom.

Featured review
A thoroughly captivating life and career story of a multi-talented actor, equestrian, figure skater and beloved star. Tab Hunter reminisces about his early life and well documented career in this beautifully produced and directed film. Tab Hunter, Confidential feels more like a conversation with a good friend than a documentary. Clearly respected amongst his peers, numerous well-known stars share insights into their lifelong friendships forged from within the ups and downs of the film community. The film makes great use of clips, publicity stills and promotional memorabilia as a reminder of the scope of his popularity. In addition, highlighting his success as an equestrian - which continues to this day - was a great insight into Tab's life away from the screen. His clear enjoyment of working in a sport that centered on the training and handling of an animal was a window into his desire to be able to get outside of his image and career, a passion that deflected focus off of himself. An afternoon well spent with a Hollywood good guy content with his life. Wonderfully done. Don't miss it.
