To the Editor:
James Franco is slumming –– and as they say on “Looking,” “It’s not pretty” (“Deconstructing ‘Cruising,’” by Gary M. Kramer, Mar. 5). But then neither was “Cruising.” There was no “New Gay Cinema” back when it was made, and actors in Hollywood were firmly locked in the closet. William Friedkin’s film was no help to any of this. Quite the contrary.
