Gay Past Meets Gay Future

dupontbrothers.jpgRemember that saucy, vaguely sad New York magazine article, from last October, about the Dupont brothers? They were the WASPy Connecticut twins for whom Andy Warhol developed an affinity when they were but seventeen years old. They slept with rich men and enchanted lonely Andy ("he would sometimes jerk me off—but I think he did genuinely like me," said brother Richard), and wandered listlessly through the Factory on their way to adulthood, like so many others at the time. Well, their story, specifically the one told in New York, is going to be made into the movie, and the Dupont boys (men now, I suppose) would like High School Musical's Zac Efron to take on both roles. Hah. Um. Weird. [P6]
