As far as Rupert Everett, he saved My Best Friend's Wedding. He OOZES charm. I watched that movie on TBS the other day with my boyfriend. Even he admitted how adorable Rupert is.

I saw Rupert Everett on Cinemax recently as Sherlock Holmes..He was wonderful!

Hey SPARKLE MOTION,
Rupert Everett
Ever see him in THE COMFORT OF STRANGERS. Even his wife in the movie say "you look like a Greek god," (he's in a bathrobe when she says that) Great cinematography of Venice. Will make you far more cautious of getting too chummy with the natives there...
He was pretty hot in ANOTHER COUNTRY. It's set in a British Boarding school, he plays gay. I think he was in his early 20's when he did that film.

--- Quote from: DavidinHartford on April 11, 2006, 03:24:34 pm --- I do understand that coming out can be career suicide. But I worry about the message it sends to young confused boys and girls. Teenage suicide is a major problem with gay boys and girls who live in oppresssed families and communities.
Young gay people need to see gay role models. The more public exposure there is , the more commonplace it will seem. Who would have thought we'd go from Will & Grace to Brokeback Mountain in ten years?

I so agree, and actors who are dragged out of the closet don't seem to make great role models. If Tom or Kevin wanna stay in the closet, leave em there.
On the other hand, there are a lot more out actors who don't get the same level of acknowledged as some of the Brits do. They're lucky, they have Ian McKellen, John Hurt, Rupert Everett, etc. Here, the two actors who are in 'Adam and Steve', Craig Chester and Malcolm Gets, are both openly gay and pretty active. I haven't seen the movie yet but it's supposed to be pretty funny.
Also, although the show sucked, the two stars of 'It's All Relative' are both handsome out actors: John Benjamin Hickey and the other's name escapes me. Speaking of sucky, three of the guys from Queer As Folk are also out, the young one, Peter Paige and Robert Gant (he's the popsicle of the three!)

Good points, all. I stand corrected about ol' Rupert. I seem to remember someone at the previous incarnation of CT who seemed to be in the know about the movie business - was it Flash? Or RT? - saying that he had said in a few interviews that he regretted it.
And I agree that he stole "My Best Friend's Wedding, btw. Totally.
I also agree with you, Juan - coming out because you've been dragged out isn't really sending a positive message, either. Let be, let be.
