You would think so, 42 never married, sworn off the prospects of kids and marriage, indie film God, Broadway actor and at some point was notoriously close to George Clooney, even showing up as a Cloney's 'date' when George got an Indie Award in 05. But for the life of me, I get nada off him. He does not ping in the least, I think he's one of the few male actors, unmarried who's straight. And he does look genuinely smitten with his current gf Leslie Bibb.

by Anonymousreply 11May 20, 2010 11:33 PM

Word is Clooney fell hard for him when they did the indie film 'Welcome to Collingwood' together, which George produced and George refused to commence filming of 'Confessions of a Dangerous Mind' until Sam was casted as lead. It was a risky move since at the time Sam was generally unknown. Sam continues to speak highly of George to this day and credits him with helping launch his career. And yes Sam wold often accompany George to events and award shows, this raised very few eyebrows, and George even joked in an interview that he tried to get Sam to come home with him to his villa but Sam declined. Beside him and George's friendship, I am yet to hear a rumour about him being gay or even bi. Interestingly, he is also good friends with Jeremy Renner who sexuality was also questioned here not to long ago. Again I don't think he's gay and a guy refusing to marry is little proof of gayness these days.

Well it's official, once he is thought of as gay he has officially made it. He's a brilliant actor, so he deserves it.

I don't see why a person being married or not is proof of their orientation. Particularly since many married actors are thought of as gay by many DLers. So its basically damn if they do, damn if they don't, or something like it.

Isn't George Clooney's bisexuality an open secret in the industry? So I don't see him taking another guy as his date to an award ceremony meaning anything other than he and the guy was dating.

(To George): Today is Valentine’s Day. You are here in London promoting two films. If you were to pick up one of them as a date, which one will you pick up and why?

GEORGE: Uhooo... pick up your favourite child! (Laughs) I don’t know... it is almost impossible to tell you. I am proud of both of the films. I felt that CONFESSIONS [OF A DANGEROUS MIND] was easily accepted, so maybe I’ll stick with SOLARIS. But again I am very proud of both films. I don’t know how famous Chuck Barris is here, but in America he is incredibly famous. So I think Sam gave an incredible performance. We have shots in the film that were actual shots of Chuck and you just can’t tell the difference. He is a phenomenal performer. He can do everything - comedy, drama, he is likable, he works hard. He was in every scene. (George looking at Sam in a soft voice) It is Valentine’s Day, so I also tend to stay on Sam’s side. I’ll bring Sam as my Valentine date, actually.

SAM: Yes, he’s my Valentine!

Sam Rockwell was on Letterman recently and two things I observed. One, was that he looked remarkably well for his age could easily pass for late 20's early 30's and secondly he would spend a considerableamount of time asserting his straightness. He is known for being fiercly private but suddenly he is constanly talking about his gf Leslie, talking about his reasons for joining the theatre was to meet girls, and I have seen some pics from Iron Man 2 primiere where him and his girlfriend PDA antics makes Heidi and Spencer's seem subdued. I am not saying Sam is gay but someone has definetly been telling him to kick his relationship and consequent heterosexuality into full gear. But I gues, he is finally getting the attention and recognition he deserves and he has been in Hollywood for a while and know how it works.

There was a BI back in late 2001 about a C-Lister blackmailing an A-List actor/director that he had photographed sniffing coke at a party, into casting him in a film.

I saw him sucking face with a hot black guy 2 years ago.

He's hotter than FUCK, I'd do anything to suck face with him.

IKR R126, ugh! He's fucking gorgeous.

OK, he may not technically be the best looking, but he's handsome enough and sometimes being the best looking doesn't matter when you exude that amount of sex appeal. You either have it or you don't and he just has it.

It's also nice that his trademark is showing that hot ass in his movies.

He's an amazing actor as well, he was totally robbed of an Oscar nom in Conviction. I hope he has a chance to shine soon.

What happened to Sam Rockwell? He's pretty much disappeared in recent years.

People who seek out fame and fortune in Hollywood have mental defects to begin with. The fact that said defective people resist traditional marriage and children is not so far fetched and unexplainable. Gay or not, his status would be weird in North Dakota, but not Hollywood

He very's good, and oddly sexy, and have no idea if he's straight or gay, but why are we to assume that all straight men must be married off by 42?

I'm more shocked that so many straight entertainers marry and marry so early and so often -- if only for the financial liability of doing so.

I remember reading something about him having a crush on Ashley Judd years ago and trying to set up a date with her through his agent. She was disgusted by the whole thing, according to Sam.

Also, Aisha Tyler, Margaret Cho and Sam Rockwell were all in the first graduating class of SF SOTA in 1986. Aisha is narrating this video:

ITA. What the hell are they thinking? Giving away half their net worth multiple times? How is that a good idea?

Because even pre-nups aren't fail-proof.

He is probably not gay, he just don't want to get married for the moment as it seems. There are many straight guys who don't like the idea of marriage.

If he is not exactly straight, he is definitely bi and not gay, that's my gaydar says at least...

Bumping because I just finally saw "The Way Way Back" and it reminded me how much I like this guy. He is really underrated. He should have won the Oscar for "Moon" but wasn't even nominated.

I don't get a gay vibe, but I wish I did. There is something so sexy about him. The other actor that gets me going is Mark Ruffalo....this picture makes me think dirty thoughts:

R140, Lawn Dogs is the only film that ever made me openly cry.

I have never seen a coming-of-age movie that is quite as unsettling or arresting. I went into it the first time thinking it would be a run-of-the-mill, indie-spirit, self-aware style-junkie flick, full of deliberately weird and annoying camera angles,many not much in the way of substance or insight. I was taken aback, and utterly transported by a Surrealist, Southern Gothic morality tale, replete with straightforward but powerful storytelling. The underlying question is one of trust--how precious it is, and how easy it is to lay our trust with the wrong person, and how terrifying the consequences of a violated trust can be.

I was astounded by its lack of pretension, the startling and almost uncomfortable sincerity, and the brave, deft and taunt handling of a taboo subject (sexualisation of children). A lonely, traumatised, and conservatively raised little girl named Devon (Mischa Barton), new to her small rural town and recently emerged from heart surgery, takes a shine to a lonely, traumatised and impoverished young man named Trent (Sam Rockwell), over twice her age, who she simply finds interesting, and never stops to question why it is she puts her trust in him. He, by contrast, is stricken by panic, fear and mistrust of the wealthy vipers whose lawns he mows for pittance, knowing they will string him up for befriending a preteen girl, yet he platonically falls for her, anyway, desperately alone as he feels.

In fact, reviewers lauded the sexual tension between the two leads, which comes across beautifully onscreen as barely there, latent, but burgeoning and undeniable. There's an edgy erotic spark between the scarred introverts, stuck in black hearted, bluegrass suburbia---Rockwell has a lapdog appeal that earnest, hardworking and sweet, and frustratingly willing to stay in a rut, yet wracked by a world weariness and very aware of how to use his own physical attractiveness and appeal to beg for scraps. Barton has a wide-eyed but knowing aura, this crackling electricity that energises scenes around her, and seems to roll rather than cover her eyes at the sex-obsessed adults in her midst. Both are used shamelessly by other characters for their bodies and their youthful energy. I could not look away in their scenes together--both actors (and characters) seem painfully aware that with just six or seven years fewer in age between them, a deeply sexual relationship would have grown between them as well as an emotional one. It is never explicitly acknowledged or acted upon, of course, which is the only relief in a tense, captivating and frankly nauseating screenplay.

The paranoia that chokes their romantic friendship is the tragic element of the movie. Unspoken is the fact that really, it is Trent's poverty and lack of education and prospects that the adults in Devon's life fear and reject, rather than his age and his gender, and that the community will use any excuse, no matter how wrong or how slanderous to run Trent and his kind out of town.I have never wanted to rescue two characters from their own story more than Devon and Trent.

The filmmaking itself is erotic, provocative and bracing. There's saturated and dark colour everywhere, blood red and forest green, and open space and huge horizons and pans, despite the majority of the action taking place in a trailer, and a walled off suburban commune. It's a film that is not afraid to be visually beautiful and glittering, in spite of the seemingly mundane and gritty subject matter.

For a fable of class, and a tale of prepubescent desire and impulse, it's jarringly honest. It feels like it belongs in a European pagan storybook, or an Old West compendium--a bizarre blend of Heidi, The Crucible, and Baba Yaga. The story is a slow, languid, almost sensual wander to the conclusion, which hits like a storm. I read a review shortly after that described it as both 'sparkling' and 'queasy', which I wholeheartedly agree with---the hypocrisy of certain characters made me feel physically ill at points, while the cinematography made me pause the movie in places, just to drink in the scenery. It is shocking in its simplicity and precocity, and it's daring enough to practically scream in the face of the audience, 'tell me what's wrong with this picture'.

It is a must see, and I never say that. It is best described as uneasy, dangerous visual poetry. It's Lynch-esque, a blend of beauty and psych-horror. It is quiet and trembling and really cuts deep. It is twisted, morbid, lovely, and defiantly NOT a retelling of Lolita.

You may or may not enjoy it, but you will never forget it. It is that good, and that sad.

I can't believe there is actually speculation regarding his sexuality. He was one of the stars of Clownhouse with Pedo Victor Salva. His prerequisite for getting the role was obviously to get fucked by Salva, since Salva was molesting the other two. He was obviously passed around.

Notorious dyke Leslie Bibb is still listed as his GF *Beard*, captured everywhere with mega closet case Clooney, makes embarrassingly OTT PDA when everyone is watching and is very 'private'. This guy ticks all the boxes of a major Hollywood gay yet all the self loathers and fraus still ferociously scream he's straight.

So what are you R147? Frau, self loather or tatty PR bitch?
