Robert Farrar
[edit]- ... that Robert Farrar's Donut, about a couple who eat a donut during sex, stars a straight couple in the film version but a gay couple on the stage?
- ALT1:... that writer-cum-musician Robert Farrar came out of the closet in his debut novel by having the main character do so?
- ALT2:... that Englishman Robert Farrar's greatest commercial success as a writer was a novel published only in German?

Thank you for introducing an interesting person, on good sources, offline and French accepted AGF. The hooks: the first is quirky and telling, but needs the ref right behind the fact. The second seems not quite as good, and as much as I like the German connection in the third, it's something that he claims, - I don't see it supported by another source. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 14:35, 7 February 2014 (UTC)
- I don't see much to doubt ALT2 (what is it to be compared with, really? no other major Hollywood films). Have duplicated the ref. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 14:42, 7 February 2014 (UTC)
It's not doubt, just comparing to tags such as this. All hooks fine with me, prefer the original, --Gerda Arendt (talk) 14:54, 7 February 2014 (UTC)
- Thanks Gerda. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 14:57, 7 February 2014 (UTC)
