"...as for the gay stuff, I don't think that anybody would care if the movie was decent."

I agree...but it sounds like Stone sticks yer nose in it in this flick, as if it was one of his driving motivations...MUD

Firstly, it's Oliver Stone. He's addicted to playing the bad boy. Secondly, it's Oliver Stone. He's a known moron.

Here's some Oliver Stone trivia. If you look closely at Wall Street, you'll see "Mad Dog Beck" in a couple of the scenes. Beck was a notorious Mergers & Acquisitions guy during the 1980s. The trouble was, he had no real qualifications and made up his entire life story, including a stint as a Special Forces guy in Vietnam and being heir to Beck's brewing. Oddly, people believed him, particularly Stone.
