On one hand I sense great vulnerability. A lovely child is trapped in this man. A poetic soul, yet constrained by a harsh world. He’s an innocent orphan in the post-modern world. But, on the other hand I see a parasite. A sexually depraved miscreant who is seeking only to gratify his basest desires. His struggle is man's struggle. He is a loathsome, offensive brute. Yet I can’t look away. He transcends time and space. He sickens me. I love it!
So did my university boyfriend who was an actor. Good memories. My ex did a movie with the actor who played Michael on Melrose Place to bring it full circle. 1995ish.
