I can’t recall a gay porn actor who’s been able to carve out a successful movie career post screwing on screen, but French stud with the Lego hairline, Francois Sagat, might be about to pull it off…

Sagat has not one, but two proper movies in contention for the top prize at the Locarno Film Festival which starts tomorrow (4 August). There’s the widely reported L.A. Zombie which has already gained notoriety for getting banned by timid Australian censors. His other film is titled Men at Bath, which might sound like one of Sagat’s skin flicks, but is actually an arty piece of gay drama directed by French auteur Christophe Honoré.

Honoré is highly regarded in his native country as a writer/director/playright and has penned a lot of stuff with gay themes. Men at Bath is a very explicit look at the bitter end of a gay relationship. Sagat plays one of the two lovers who can’t quite break the bond they share despite ending up on different continents and finding some new bed mates.
