    1. If this is true, then it’s based on his part. However I can’t help but feel like there’s some irony in complaining about segregation and racism on the set of Gone with the Wind, a book and film infamously controversial for their positive portrayal of the Confederacy and association with the Lost Cause myth.

    2. Didn’t stop him from getting George Cukor fired from the shoot (likely due to homophobia)
