I have a difficulty concerning what seems to be damaged dandies. It wasn’t sexual with me, but more of a rock n’ roll image of the dandy in trouble. Or cinematic characters and figures from literature fed my imagination of those who chose or had no choice but to be outsiders of the established world. And if, like Oscar Wilde, they are sent to prison, better yet! The late Pierre Clémenti was an actor who was in the right place and time until he was sent to an Italian prison for drugs in 1972. Good chance it was a set-up because narcotics were found in his apartment, which seemed to have an open door policy at the time due to the bohemian lifestyle. He spent seventeen months in jail until he was released due to insufficient evidence. What came out of his experience is the prison memoir
