Ian Fleming had a legendary compound in Jamaica that had big parties that literary and show biz types attended. There was debauchery. You can bet gays came too and acted out or semi-out in contrast to staying in the closet in the UK. Just saying.....
I will not see any Bond movie where he is hanging with a Reggie Love type
One of Fleming’s best friends was Noel Coward, so he’d certainly know how to write about what the English call “poofters”
I stopped seeing Bond movies after Sean Connery. To me Connery will be the only James Bond.
