Also, Granger was bisexual, not simply gay.<br /><br />Clifton Webb probably could've done either part better than Dall and Granger, but he was 29 years older than Dall (30 in 1948) and 36 years older than Granger (23 in 1948). <br /><br />Some Possibilities:<br />Montgomery Clift has, of course, been rumored to have been gay, or possibly bisexual, and he would have been an interesting casting decision, though he I don't think he was "out" as Dall and Granger were. I could be wrong about any or all of those three actors' "out-ness". He was 28 in 1948 so right in the target age range.<br />Dirk Bogarde wasn't "out" during his career, though his homosexuality was assumed. He was 27 in 1948.<br />James Dean's sexual orientation has been debated since his death, of course. Either way, he could've been great in either role, though I know he didn't appear in a film until 3 years after Rope was released. My only issue is that he could have been overly mannered, something I found that he overcame for the most part, but could really hurt a portrayal of homosexual undertones. He was 17 in 1948.<br />Harry Andrews is an out-of-left-field choice, but could've been a potentially good one. He didn't make his debut until 1953, and I haven't seen him outside of his great work in The Hill, but he's an option. He was a bit older, at 37, in 1948, and so probably would've been out of the running, especially given that Jimmy Stewart was 40 at that point.<br />George Grizzard was mainly a TV and stage actor, but he won an Emmy and a Tony. He didn't make his stage debut until 1955 and his film and TV even after that. He was 20 in 1948.<br />Nigel Hawthorne of Madness of King George fame would have been 19.<br />Alec McCowen, mainly a stage actor, but an accomplished one at that, would have been 23.<br /><br />That was a lengthy post essentially saying that yes, I agree, it could've been made with better gay or bisexual actors even at the time.Michael Patisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03660402132708891205noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2457552600380761837.post-87089927047224064672013-05-21T15:56:09.171-04:002013-05-21T15:56:09.171-04:001.
