It's true what they say – everyone's a critic! New York based art dealer Sam Green says he's considering a lawsuit after being depicted as a bit bent in director Tom Kalin's new flick, Savage Grace. The movie, which tells the tale of heiress Barbara Baekeland and her murderous, incestuous lover son, Tony, shows a scene in which "Green" and Tony – played by Hugh Dancy and Eddie Redmayne – get down and dirty. And Green's not pleased.
[Green] told Page Six the R-rated flick, which opened in limited release last month, depicts him having a homosexual romp with Tony, who often brought young men home for sex."I never went to bed with the son. I had an affair with the mother, but they made the rest up," Green fumed.
…
Green told us he has no problem being depicted as one of the many characters who hung around the Baekelands. But a scene in which he and Tony have sex simply never happened, he insists.
Green and his lawyer are now considering a defamation suit. Savage Grace's producers, however, says the movie comes with a disclaimer saying some characters are "composites," the easiest of easy outs! (And, quite frankly, good – we can't stand when people get twisted about being thought gay.)

maybe he's just twisted about sleeping with a young gay. isn't he just a kid in the film?
Yeah, this is more than just being upset about someone insinuating you're gay. If nothing else, I'm sure the movie makes him look like a total sleezeball (sleeping with the mother and her young — maybe underaged — and clearly disturbed son?).
Who's he kidding?…Green is as gay as they come…
