Re Louis Hayward. He did smoke and died from a smoking related illness, not at 72 but at 75 a few weeks shy of his 76th birthday. Noel Coward was his employer, not his lover or patron. Hayward was very well aware of this kind of gossip about himself, and countless other prominent people. It pissed him off.

+Barry Lane -well, of course, if they were lovers, that fact would never have been made known - at least publicly - being gay, even 30 years ago, would've ruined one's reputation, at least in Hollywood!
@barrylane49809 жыл бұрын
If someone is gay, whether or not in the entertainment industry, there is a history encompassing an ongoing series of relationships. Noel Coward had that with several men, who over the course of time became his heirs. You may, or may not know this, but I not only knew Louis Hayward, but was his personal manager. He was not gay, resented the allusions, and despised Noel. And not for being gay, but for his personal conduct. Noel for his part, never wrote that he and Hayward had a relationship other than a professional one. That was left to his biographers and interpreters to fantasize about. Which sums it up pretty nicely from my perspective.

Eva Ruah are you just "off the boat" or something? C'mon...jeez. You're either very naive, probably born in the 90s or later, or you come from a much less hung-up place, like, well, just about anywhere in Western Europe. If a BRILLIANT film, like Midnight Cowboy (1969), which stuffy, hung-up American movie ratings people gave an "X" rating to (not to be confused w/"XXX", which is hardcore porn). But the joke was on the industry in the end, since Midnight Cowboy won the "Best Picture" Oscar for the 69 year. Dustin Hoffman was marvelous as "Ratso" Rizzo and Jon Voigt was great as the naive, country boy, come to the big city (NYC) to be a "stud" -for all the rich ladies who'd pay him for "services"...when, after a while, it's obvious that his plan to be a gigolo isn't panning out, he gets desperate for money and so,1 night he wanders in some porn theater, and who happens to be sitting by him? A young Bob Balaban. Joe Buck, desperate for $, lets the kid give him a blow job but afterwards finds out the kid doesn't have any $. Anyway, in the theater, when the kid goes down on Joe Buck, they don't show anything. It's in a darkened theater, for one and all you see, basically, is like a view from the row behind them. It's all "suggestive" -but, of course, it's suggestive of "gay sex" which, has to be why it earned an "X" rating - I know that if that scene weren't in the movie, it would've gotten an "R" rating. Of course, if the exact same movie were made today it would get an "R" rating, not for the gay sex thing, but for all the other racy stuff going on. But, yes, it's hip to be gay nowadays in Hollywood, TV, etc, but there was a time when, oh, a character, here & there may have effeminate traits, etc, but the actors themselves were all "straight" as can be - even the gay ones were deep in the closet for fear of being blacklisted, in effect. Hate to say it, but that's how things worked in the bad old days.

get it right if you are going to push it. He died at 75. His first marriage to Ida Lupino sank with his coming home from the war. It affected him with PTSD. He was married a 2nd time and then a 3rd and had a son with his 3rd wife. He was not divorced a 3rd time. As for being gay or bi I think he heterosexual but because he knew Noel was painted with the same brush. In any event, he was a fine actor and a good guy.
@lindaname94133 жыл бұрын
you are so mistaken, get your facts right before you shoot your mouth off. Died at age 75. Quit smoking five years before, but too late. and the relationship with Coward is more fiction than fact. He had 2 marriages that ended, but the 3rd produced a son and his wife survived him.

Eliezer Pennywhistler Maybe that's the kind of stuff you watch, but no, I was thinking more along the lines of films like Moonrise Kingdom, The Limits of Control, Killer Joe, Goodbye to Language -a film you would most likely never understand - as well as many other cerebral films not financed or necessarily distributed by major corporate shit studios. Sorry to say, but anyone who makes or watches movies made from comic books are just plain lazy and easily entertained, simple-minded boors. The fact that these shit films may be box-office hits just shows the pathetic condition of lowbrow American audiences.

In 1940 Lewis Hayworth was great in the movie "The son of Monte Cristo" if you get a chance see it.

@Von Staufenberg also in film, "Repeat Performance" with Joan Leslie as a terrible cheating husband. "House By The River", where he is a murderer, "Then They Were None", same. He played a scoundrel or murderer in several films.

Pleasant little film, thank you for uploading. Hayward is a classy actor, and despite the derogatory comments about Barbara Read's looks, I think she's cute.

R Simon I agree - she had smarts, humor, personality and looks. The problem with casting leading ladies today (except British TV/movies there heroines come in a variety of looks!) is there's a "gorgeous" and size 8 requirement to be met mostly - the actresses can't have other attributes that bring out their individual beauty - one reason why I love the old movies is the ladies showed moved than looks - a lot of them showed more than that.

It does not bother me that anyone is "gay", it is just that it is not something anyone needs to know, sort of personal, you know? Loved the film though.
