Oscar Winner Rod Steiger's next big film, The Sergeant, is about...
...Scenes. Where has Hollywood's sudden vivid interest in homosexuality come from? "It comes from what's happening all around,'' suggests Director John Schlesinger, whose new film, Midnight Cowboys is about a male prostitute. "Everybody does more or less what he wants to these days, and no one says anything about it. Films are a reflection of that attitude, and homosexuality is just one part of the whole scene...
