>make movie about an off-the-rails pornographic comedy novel >decide instead it should be a semi-biopic probing the author’s character as some joyless freak who somehow doesn’t know or won’t say he’s gay, as if he wasn’t always openly gay even in his lavender marriagesWtf lmao this movie is the one that should have been called Queer, that’s the book Cronenberg was clearly most interested in
