Apparently, was mon knowledge among Rebel Whout A Cse's crew Plato was ed gay.

By today’s standards, the subtle gay subtext Rebel Whout A Cse is rtraed.
a seri by Christopher Jam lookg at the 'Gay Bt Friend' trope.
After a few months of lookg at the gay bt iend trope over the past 30 years, we wanted to go back to a time where the “gay bt iend” uldn’t be lled a “gay bt iend. However, that didn’t keep gay characters off the screen.

One of the more famol “gay bt iends” durg the era was Sal Meo’s Osr-nomated portrayal of Plato Nicholas Ray’s Rebel Whout a Cse. How uld we tell he was gay?
Plato don’t know what a happy gay life looks like. This feels like the genis for the “gay bt iend” trope as we’ve seen many romantic edi.
Even a movie directed by bi-sexual Nicholas Ray, happy endgs weren’t afford to gay characters, cludg the on that didn’t officially e out. The “gay bt iend” was also gog to be the sacrificial lamb that brgs everyone else’s arc to a close.
