  1. Bogarde was always one of my favorite actors; like the brevity & braveness of this tiny response; had to look up Postillion; loved the definition, will use it soon in some poem of my own.

  3. Ummm ... not so sure. He told a lot of 'porkies' about his life.

    1. Read his autobiographical book series before being critical. He had many detractors and enemies because he never " came out" as a homosexual. Personally I think a person's sexuality is their own business and I admire people who refuse to emblazon it to the world. Judgemement should not made on sex religion race or caste.The media and the populace are too eager to pigeon hole and slot everyone into a stereotype.
