brideshead revisited

ok,so.....I have been watching brideshead revisited on vhs....borrowed a few tapes at a time from the library.....at least I was until this evening when I brought home a tape out of sequence ...rats...and so now...I am watching ocean's eleven while I cycle .....gotta do more than ride and blog.....but back to the 80's miniseries.....the undertones of homosexuality are so subtle......certainly not what it would be if made after 2000...the term never gets more specific than fairy....there is minimal physical
contact......neither is there much verbal intimacy....but yet the tale is compelling and classic.....and jeremy irons looks so young and innocent .....years before he played the father-figure in lolita......
