It just seems so appropriate for an industry totally based on fantasy to say that.
There is a documentary out on HBO I think about the ‘secret lives of Hollywood’ or something like that. I saw only parts of it, but the producers/directors claim that Hollywood was always a place that attracted people outside of the ‘sexual norms’ of society so to speak - gay, straight, bi, multiple partners etc even back before talkies. There is an anecdote about Cole Porter I think that might get me banned if I repeated it...
