The Wisdom of Oliver

November 18, 2004 -- IS Oliver Stone's $150 million epic "Alexander" too gay for mainstream audiences? Stone, who previously stirred controversy with "JFK" and "Natural Born Killers," is on the hot seat again with his biopic about the bisexual Macedonian emperor, played by Colin Farrell, which opens next Wednesday...

"Alexander lived in a more honest time," Stone told Playboy magazine.

"We go into his bisexuality. It may offend some people, but sexuality in those days was a different thing. Pre-Christian morality. Young boys were with boys when they wanted to be."

Ah yes, those were the good old days, when young boys were with boys, men with boys, men with little girls, young girls with young girls. Don't you hate it when that Christian morality stuff gets in the way of a good time. No wonder Stone loves Castro - that Christian morality never gets in the way.
