Colin Farrell speaks out about Alexander's gay sex scenes

Despite playing the bisexual lead in Oliver Stone's upcoming "Alexander the Great" biopic, Colin Farrell has spoken out about the media's obsession with the film's gay sex scenes. "There may be details of Alexander's sexuality in the film, but Oliver wanted to portray the figure accurately and didn't want to ignore facts surrounding his sexual antics." Farrell loses his cool: "There was no term for it then, it was just part of the culture, what happened was older men, 50, 70 years old, used to spend the evening with younger men and impart their knowledge to them, and then they'd go to bed together. It's not a gay film, it's not a straight film … it's just a fucking story!"
