Just randomly stumbled upon this photo of Apartment Zero actors slash dreamboats Hart Bochner and Colin Firth -- who just gave a tremendously moving performance in the movie Supernova, reviewed here -- flanking slash humping their make-up man Alberto Moccia, and knew I had to post it, since we're massive Apartment Zero fans. (Talk about a movie ripe for rediscovery -- it's a disgrace even the DVD is out-of-print; get it on blu-ray already, Criterion or somebody!) See my previous beefcake-centric post on Apartment Zero here. Firth really has been playing gay since forever -- I mean his very first movie was Another Country, for god's sake! Colin Firth has been playing gay for longer than I have, basically!

Has he been playing gay forever? He was the straight on in 'Another Country'. I can't remember him playing gay in anything, he was gay-ish in 'Apt Zero'.
Proves I haven't seen Another Country in 1000 years. But Firth played the gay role in the stage version before the movie, and then switched to the straight character for the adaptation. And he was gay in A Single Man of course. I'm sure there are more. And I count him as FULLY GAY in Apartment Zero, that is a HOMOSEXUAL, I don't care if they never "say" it
OMG, thanks for this blast from the past! I loved Apartment Zero when it came out (yes I saw it in the theatre more than a handful of times during its initial run). I had the biggest crush on Hart Bochner back in the day...
Firth played gay in Mama Mia and MM Here We Go Again.
AZ was wonderful. My last remaining vhs.
