Only in the US of the 1950s could Liberace be not the outest out homosexual in the world. Looking at him today it is sort of ridiculous, the man was adored by women of the time, as Shakespeare once put it: 'twere better she loved a dream".
And speaking odf dreams, hot on the heels of dream weaver Jerry Weintraub's thrilling bio on HBO, Jerry is at the helm of a Liberace bio for the same network, featuring Mike Douglas as the flamboyant pianist and Matt Damon as his very very best friend.
Matt claimed to People: "
"I never thought I would get to kiss Michael Douglas,I kind of think of it in algebra terms, back to my high-school days. It's like the transitive property – by kissing Michael Douglas, I am making out with Catherine."
