RIP John Fraser (1931 – 2020)

John Fraser was a Scottish actor known for The Trials of Oscar Wilde (1960) and Repulsion (1965).

 The Trials of Oscar Wilde (1960)

My gaydar was effective, I noticed while watching The Trials of Oscar Wilde that Fraser was gay. It’s good that they cast a gay man for a gay part in 1960.

Repulsion (1965)

In Repulsion too, Fraser has that gay, slightly decadent and perverse persona.
