Hm, have I read or skimmed the book? I was thinking of the movie. I remember vaguely that the weirdness is not an invention of the movie but comes from the book, but don't remember if that is from firsthand knowledge or reading someone else explaining it.
I don't remember that part. I does sound hot. Maybe it's possible, because I remember reading an article about how a Mapplethorpe trial was hilarious how the two sides talked past each other, something like "What is this picture?" "A study in contrast between light and dark." "No, it's a picture of a man with his finger in his penis." (um, what? sounds super painful? I think I mentioned this, and someone explained maybe there's already a ring in there, so there's more room than original? um, bailing now, thx.)
