[QUOTE="Alexis, post: 4724, member: 68"] Yea so I watched the documentary Tab Hunter Confidential on Netflix last night and I think I'm a bit in love with him. Even old man Tab Hunter is lovely. It was a fascinating film and great insight into what it was like for a gay movie star back in that era. The film features people like Debbie Reynolds, Don Murray, Clint Eastwood, Lainie Kazan and many others speaking about Tab, as well as Tab [B](Arthur Andrew Kelm) [/B]himself recounting his life in Hollywood and his relationships with other actors like Anthony Perkins and Roddy McDowell. It mentions how his agent, the same guy responsible for other stars like Rock Hudson, John Saxon and Troy Donahue leaked a story to the press about Tab being arrested at a gay party in order to keep the press quiet about outing Rock Hudson. It's a very good documentary for anyone interested in old Hollywood and someone as unbelievably pretty as Tab Hunter was. I can see why he became such a teen heartthrob. I don't know how I didn't really know much about him. I haven't seen any of his films but that's about to change as I want to see more and more of him. Maybe I can get a few others hooked on him too.
