Gielgud’s Porn Script Has Been Filmed
A gay porn film based on a screenplay written by the late, great classical actor Sir John Gielgud has finished production, despite opposition from his estate. “Trouser Bar” is set in a menswear shop where an orgy takes place and stars Nigel Havers and Julian Clary as passersby. The screenplay was secretly written by Gielgud – known for his roles in Julius Caesar and Arthur – for Peter de Rome, the grandfather of gay porn. The script was never used by de Rome but David McGillivray, who recently produced a documentary about him, has turned it into a full-length feature. It’s a decision which has angered The Sir John Gielgud Charitable Trust. Details.
