The thg that I did do was to look at the way gay people and mers were reprented the prs at the time, which was credibly helpful bee there was jt a huge amount of hatred and prejudice that was absolutely unapologetic and that was very ighteng and very shockg to read, and certaly if was for me was even more shockg for the young 20-year-olds the st. They lled gay people the slime of society wh absolutely no admonishment or anythg.

I was lookg at your terview wh Attu and I saw the ver le said that Pri is “greatt gay film of all time“, and I also saw another terview wh you where you said ’s not jt a gay film. I thk the thg that I feel very strongly about is that everybody that I’ve spoken to is really moved by the film, and for that reason I say ’s not jt a gay film. I thk ’s been embraced by the gay muny bee I thk people are very celebratory about the fact that gay people are not jt seen story l that are related to sex or sexualy, that their attribut of kdns and bravery and passn are the thgs that are celebrated the movie and I thk that’s credibly important.

In our st, we have men and women, we have people their 70s and people their teens, we have posh people and workg class people, we have different natnali, and we have gay and straight people. … You don’t have be a mer to know about unn polics or be a gay person to really embrace . Of urse people ask me about that, and that’s absolutely to be expected on this gig, but what I am is an actor and I play lots of different parts, gay, straight, lots of different on.
