(I’m not sure how old this is, but my Google Alerts delivered it to my inbox today, so I thought I’d share a rare interview!)
Right now, 26-year-old actor Jesse Bradford — star of “Swimfan” and “Bring It On,” isn’t a household name to anyone but teens, but that’s going to change with the release of “Heights,” the last Merchant-Ivory film (groundbreaking gay producer Ismail Merchant died in May).
“Heights” is anything but teen fluff: It’s a subtle, gripping tale of secrets, sex and manipulation over the course of 24 hours. In it, Bradford plays a struggling actor who gets “godsmacked” by Glenn Close.
Bradford recently sat down to talk with Entertainment Editor Jenny Stewart on his passionate (and surprising) kiss scene, his own teenage heartbreak and how much he loves his gay fan base.
Spoiler alert: Don’t read any further if you don’t want to know what happens in “Heights!”
