Synopsis
In the 1950s, Hollywood agent Henry Willson specialized in representing handsome male stars. A gay man himself, his taste in clients was designed to appeal to the pubescent fantasies of adolescent girls. His latest discovery was the beautiful, blonde Art Gelien, who had little to no acting experience. Willson realized that Art’s stunning grace, beauty, and boy-next-door appeal was just what he was looking for. Seeing Art’s potential, he signed the kid, changed his name to Tab Hunter, and tried repeatedly to sleep with him–to no avail.
