Daniel, you didn’t mention Margot’s most telling line. “Zanuck, Zanuck, Zanuck: what are you two, lovers?”

Suddenly Last Summer is an interesting one because there's layers of obvious subtext... Like a moralist baklava. The incest, the Epstein-like globe-hopping---being gay and being reprehensible are a bit of a chicken/egg situation.

Who wrote this crap? Nothing you mentioned in this trash article is “lesbianism”. Breaking up heterosexual relationships is lesbianism? The anti-lesbian is screaming with every paragraph that it makes me wonder who hurt you. Did you lose your wife to a lesbian or something?
