92. The Fan with special guest Jeff Nelson

Movies That Made Us Gay

We needed hearts, not diamonds! We watched The Fan (1981) with the very funny Jeff Nelson and we could use a warm cup of High Point coffee! Lauren Bacall plays a Broadway actress with an obsessive fan played by Michael Biehn who may, or may not be a closet-case (spoiler alert: he totally is). A pre-Terminator (sexy as hell) Biehn spends the movie typing explicit letters to Sally Ross (Bacall) but is rejected at every turn. Maureen Stapleton as Sally’s no-nonsense secretary and James Garner as Sally’s would-be love interest round out the cast and when the three of them shared the screen I could smell the second hand smoke from their voices alone. The play within the movie is the most homosexual thing I’ve seen in a long time - and this is the same movie with Michael Biehn jumping into a YMCA pool in his boxer shorts. In New York City. In 1981. You do the math.
