From what I've read in a Wilder bio, it seems like Wilder was open to the idea that maybe it wasn't entirely heterosexual.
On the other hand, we know that Jack Lemmon wasn't. When Vito Russo wanted to interview him for The Celluloid Closet, he refused. If memory serves, he was adamant that there was nothing gay about Jerry or the film. You'd think he might at least admit that the question might come up and that he might want to give his point of view. |
