It'll be worth it if he's a sexy cad or shirtless. I just can't fathom it being any ways a good film but I'm open...to staring at Tommy.

Very interesting. He does come across as having some turmoil (& apparently isn't an easy presence on set.) Hope he finds his happiness.He says he's in therapy and has been in it for a very long time both couples and individual and it seems this warring within hasn't dissipated. I just wonder what he talks about in therapy because if it isn't his hang ups and pressures of gender and societal expectations I don't think it's of much service to him. When he talks so much about not feeling manly and feeling scared of ( ... )
