With all the hate towards J.K Rowling (deserved) and lets say Kanye West for example, you can enjoy the art but can you really separate what they create from what they say?

If you rewatch 'LA Confidential' and realize the Spacey was gay, it makes his crusade to find out who killed the hustler make a lot more sense.

edit = What I meant was that in the movie and original novel the Spacey character is straight. There were a lot of gay men at the time who would rather die than admit to being 'queer.' I saw the movie after reading the books, and took my interpretation from that.

    A gay cop in the 1950's?

    Read some history.

    I the original novels there's a closeted gay cop who kills himself after his secret comes out.

    I edited my original comment.

    I read the books before I saw the movie. In the books, the character is straight.

    However, on the show 'Mad Men' and in the novel 'The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier and Clay" there are characters so deeply closeted that they'd rather die than admit who they are.

    That's the kind of 'gay' I was thinking.
