And gradually, the guys start to show physical affection. And you could hear waves of discomfort in the theater, as people started to fix on what was going on in the movie. Finally, there’s the scene where the guys actually kiss. And it was like a bomb went off in the theater. There was a stream of people walking out. ‘Oh, my God, what is this! I can’t watch this, it’s horrifying!'” Making Love comes out on DVD next week
