Alexander's achievements and enduring fame have nothing to do with his sexuality which was consistant with his time...only more so, as is usually the case with men of great power.
What Stone film is great LL?
He's made money before but which have been great?
Great characters yes....Elias, Woods/Belushi, Caine/The hand......Kilmer-Doors but what besides neat characters.
His flicks are politically hammy or fantasy or lurid.....not great.
IMHO.
Anybody thinks Stone is anything but an ignorant (in the classic sense) degenerate with a lense eye should get last month's Playboy with Brook Burke on cover (the only reason to buy that rag) and read his interview....he really believes his hype and is obviously somewhere between neurotic and plain looney and loathes America and any morality.
