Fascinating interview. It does give rise to the question do we ever really know ourselves, and does assuming another's persona, and reliving the past take you anywhere? I suppose in the literary world, and elsewhere, the lives of the famous are different than those of our own and we listen with amusement of a golden age that might just as well be fiction for all the affect it has on us.

You might want to track down the gf of Frances Fay, who Bruce Webber used clumsily in "Chop Suey" Pretty lame the way he presented her, but it was the most interesting part of the 'movie'. I stood up at the TIFF and asked during the Q&A if it was irony that all the males he presented as protagonists in his films were allegedly str8 but clearly pandering to his gay aesthetic? He told me to sit down and refused to answer. He had the current beef cake with him, very A&F, and he, of course, was in his standard babushka and bear-wear. Yawn. Apparently, George Cukor, upon seeing Jeff Aqualon (Bruce's first star) emerging from his pool in a red clingy speedo, said, "That's Hollywood".
I guess like Ester Williams some are stars wet...
