Recently deceased,

 "The most beautiful boy in the world"
sixteen years old,
(white, characterless, passive
and, to me, fairly repulsive
in the celebrated film of Death in Venice)

claimed that Luchino Visconti
didn’t give a fuck”
about his feelings.  

“I’ve never seen so many fascists and assholes
as there are in film and theatre,”
said Björn Andrésen.
“Luchino was the sort of cultural predator
who would sacrifice anything or anyone for the work.”

And, one should add, for his desire and ambition.


Much older is much more beautiful.
