If you watched it on HBO it portrays Liberace as an old gay guy who took advantage of younger gay men then threw them away when another younger, more attractive gay guy came along.

Starring Michael Douglas and Matt Damon. Kinda sickening really. It's based on a book Liberace's boy friend wrote about it.

The nerve - casting Matt Damon to portray a 17 year old.

I didn't care much for the movie. I loved Liberace for his talent and his flamboyance, but watching details of his sex life didn't do it for me.
Incidentally, Scott was just convicted of several crimes last month and is due to be sentenced in July. He will be behind bars for a long time. Lee and drugs were his downfall and ruined his life. He has been in and out of jail since the 80's when the romance went south...

REVEALED! LIBERACE EX-LOVER SCOTT THORSON JAILED! - The National Enquirer

The article says he suffers from anal cancer. He is in jail now and says they didn't reimburse him much for using his book. He is one messed up dude but Liberace was weird as well.

The theatres would not take the movie saying "it was too gay." Not sure that that meant but HBO took it.
