"The Gene Krupa Story" (1959) turns out to be a Sal Mineo BONANZA! Adorable from street tough to altar boy to shirtless in satin sheets and in a tuxedo. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XT1b3FfOsCM

Thank you -- I really enjoyed this. Have you ever seen “Rock Pretty Baby”? Sal is adorable as a shirtless bongo player on the beach, and so is Rod McKuen (!) But the camera only has eyes for John Saxon in a tight boxer-cut swimsuit, commanding his reluctant girlfriend to admire his body in the moonlight ... now where was I? You can stream it on YouTube. If you have any Saxonalia to share, I’d love to read it 💐🧞‍♂️🫖
