''Well, my career was pretty on fire when I took this project ['Clash of the Titans']. I did this movie, and then 'Making Love' came out the same year. I played sort of the first normal gay character. I think the audience and perhaps critics became confused. My career kind of slowed down after that.''

Actor Harry Hamlin speaking with the LA Times about his role in the 1981 fantasy film ''Clash of the Titans'' which has just been re-released on Blu-ray, and his follow-up role as Bart McGuire, the gay lover of a married man in ''Making Love.'' Hamlin later went on to star in the TV shows "LA Law" and "Veronica Mars." And, not coincidentally, Hamlin is credited as the voice of Perseus for the 2007 video game title, "God of War II.'' A new version of the "Titans" movie is about to be released this month, starring Sam Worthington. Hamlin says he did not wish to appear in a cameo for the new film. (LA Times)
