Eldergays, tell me about Michael York

He was always too blond.

Closeted till his career was over.

Gays don't like blondes...for some reason.

I'm gay and I do.

He was married to a woman who took stills on movie sets.

“I love a woman in LAN-ger-ray.”

He went to America and never came back.

He has a nice-sized uncut cock.

And he loves to bottom.

Always looked like a reconstructed burn victim to me.

He was a runner.

He's a pretentious queen

but he LOVES to get fucked!

I met him once in the 80s

And by "met him"

I assume you mean "Jammed my dick into his ass repeatedly"

R12 No, met him on the street

And how did he look?

Did you get a glimpse of that cock-crazed look in his eyes?

He looked like a woman in "Murder On the Orient Express".

Feygula!

He probably had a big-dicked boyfriend then who made him feel 'pretty'

He likes to suck dick

OP: look for the sex with a celebrity thrrads. One had a detailed account by a poster who met him on a plane. In the 70s he was the star every gay guy wanted. Not Steve McWussn. Not Apaul Newman. They were frau chaff.

He had a memorable limited run on Knots Landing as the man who savagely broke Abby’s heart in her teens and made her the tough bitch she became in her adulthood. It was odd casting because he was so fey and came off like Frasier and Niles’s long lost brother. It being the late 80’s, it would’ve been better to cast a pussy destroying Corbin Bernsen-type... not the bisexual from Cabaret.

He was well known in the 1980s for his love of double-dildos and spanking.

Used to masterbate endlessly to a shirtless photo of him that ran in a Playboy pictorial about sex in the movies. So beautiful. This thread gives me hope!

He always had a nice bulge,in all his movies.

He looked good in leather.

I've always liked his speaking voice, and he's a good actor.

He should have shot some truly fetishy icy/hot melodramas in Amsterdam or Rotterdam or Hambourg. He had that hung blond fishhead look down.

I think he was at the peak of his hotness in "Three Musketeers."

when he was young . . .

He played a handsome gay man who fucked everyone, figuratively and literally, in Something for Everyone, a 1970 comedy with Angela Lansbury. It was good and ahead of its time to treat homosexuality as nothing special.

He played another gay character who also fucked women in Cabaret (1972). I don't think he way shy about his sexuality.

I'm still alive, bitches.

I always liked him but I'm a sucker for a blond brit.

Hot in Romeo and Juliet

He aged well. His angular features served him well in his old age. Wonder who his plastic surgeon is.

Loved him in that L&O criminal intent. It was unsettling.

Loved him. Love him. Will continue to love him.

[quote]hung blond fishhead look

The what, r25?

His Cliff Bradshaw did not scream Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, to me.

[quote]He aged well.

Please. For nearly a decade, he has been suffering from amyloidosis, a rare disease that disfigures the face. Here is a 2017 photo:

Loved “Something For Everyone”!

There was a mini serie on tv called secret of the Sahara . Loved him in that and also cabaret .

Cabaret and Austin Powers made me the man I am today!

FWIW

[quote]I'm still alive, bitches.

But you've lost your looks, so you're dead to us.

That must be a horrible disease R38 - it makes him look like Rev Jim Bakker

R10, that's not Michael York in that photo.

Liked him in "The Taming of the Shrew." but let's face it - he's no Malcolm McDowell

Simon MacCorkindale was hotter.

R10, that's some dude named Mickey Hardt, at that blog, the photos of Michael were under his. IIRC, Mickey was a fashion model.

Great voice.

Fishheads - the race of tall handsome men, with nevertheless fishy faces - mouths, eyes, that runs from Rotterdam to Gdańsk. York doesn't look British to me he looks like the northern fishheads, though at 1.8m he's a bit short for that race.

It’s all about this scene. I was very young when I saw this, maybe 12, but had caught the sexual tension between the men. Then to have it put out there so blatantly was a revelation to me. “ So do I”

That’s so sad he has amyloidosis. I loved how he looked in the 70s-80s. And his voice.

R38- He looks like the head of one of THE FIVE FAMILIES OF NEW YORK(MAFIA)

I think I heard he broke his nose playing Rugby at Rugby School. That was back in 1962 or something.

And then Zeffirelli spied his butch face and plucked from the chorus into the spotlight in 1966 or so.

....

Did anyone ever see the film Fedora where MY played himself. I saw it many times on an HBO like movie channel in the late 70s and was somewhat obsessed with it. MY’s IMDB doesn’t list it, which seems strange.

R55 It's under "Self" not "Actor" in his IMDB credits.

R55, It also features a cameo appearance by DL fave Arlene Francis.

....

What the fuck is a Fishhead?

Looked very hot as a brunette.

Loved those sensuous lips

York likes cock. It has been well documented.

And he likes getting spanked.

I love him. I was 10 when Cabaret came out. I saw him on maybe Merv? I had the biggest crush on him. I was shy and quiet. I would go to the public library and look up all the news/gossip items I could find about him. Sorry to hear he is ill.

How could you all forget Logan's Run? The campy 1976 scifi thriller that introduced the world to Farrah Fawcett?

York starred with Jenny Agutter, whose career never recovered.

R65--um see R54

Sorry to hear of his health problems.

He was all over the place in the seventies.

And then we got a little taste of him with Austin Powers.

If he does indeed suck cock and take dick up the arse, all my adolescent prayers have been answered. Is this really true?!?! Too good to be true?!??

....

He looks sad with this terrible eye condition.

I would absent myself from public life if I had it.

Only in Shangri La is this outfit considered "butch".

Oh my gosh, r60, I didn't know that York was in the Zeffirelli "Romeo and Juliet." I need to watch the movie again.

[quote]Gays don't like blondes...for some reason

R3, Blond men were very sought after in North America and Western Europe forever. So common it was unremarkable. It has only been in the past few years, maybe 10 or 15, that dinge has become a thing sought by anyone except fetishists.

R73 Yes, public taste changes.

A celebrated English queen (not Stephen Fry) noticed recently that it was always easy to detect Dr Jekkyl from Mr Hyde in movie versions of the story. Jekkyl was uprightly handsome while Hyde was a scruffy, half-monster reprobate.

This queen says Mr Hyde is the attractive one according to current public taste.

DL Queens LOVE Logan's Run. The GAYEST scene in that movie is when the renewal people display their spandex and float up.

R75 The gayest scene is the orgy with visible gay sex, fool

So... married since 1968 and no children...

His foreskin is too long.

Loves exposition.

Franco Zeffirelli's grande passione.

Looks relatively butch there, R80.

Butch with naturally-apelike, ungroomed eyebrows

He had to be the most effete actor to ever have a career as a legitimate leading man in film, right?

His eyebrows look weird in R80's pic.

If Joel Grey can come out at 82 there's still time for Michael.

I wish I could commission this as a mural.

R80 Perhaps Zeffirelli asked him to have ape-like eyebrows and overtanned skin because the character he was playing was a tanned, street-fighting, brainless, brawling 'Ragazzi'.

[quote]So... married since 1968 and no children...

Yeah, and?

(Pat is also a firmly lezbian name)

He spent a lot of time around gay actors: Dirk Bogarde, Ian McKellan, Derek Jacobi, John Gieglud, Laurence Olivier...

R86-Farrah looks so STEREOTYPICALLY FARRAH in that photo.

R76-Putting FOOL at the end you sound like a character from GOOD TIMES.

Any truth to the rumor that Donna Mills had his run on Knots cut short because she didn't want a love interest prettier than her?

In his autobiog he wrote about experimenting with gay sex before deciding it wasn’t for him (book was called ‘Travelling Player’)

Hmm. I don't really blame anyone of that generation deciding being gay wasn't worth it at the time.
