Analysis of information sources in references of the Wikipedia article "Björn Andrésen" in Indonesian language version.
Andrésen recounts in The Most Beautiful Boy in the World that during filming, Visconti had warned the crew that he was sexually off limits – but this protection ended once the film was wrapped, when in Andrésen's words, he had "served [Visconti's] purpose". After the Cannes premiere, he was taken to a gay club by Visconti while very drunk, an experience he describes in the film as "hell".
Andresen said that when he was 16, Visconti would take him to gay clubs where he was made uncomfortable by grown men staring at him: 'They looked at me uncompromisingly as if I was a nice meaty dish.'
Sometimes he still sees his image as Tadzio in a poster or in a cinema flyer; it used to cause him irritation, but not any more. 'My career is one of the few that started at the absolute top and then worked its way down,' he says. 'That was lonely.'
Andrésen sangat kesal saat sutradara menekannya untuk pergi ke klub gay di mana dia merasa dijadikan objek. "Itu sangat tidak nyaman," kata Andrésen. "Saya sendirian dengan sekelompok pria. Saya mengatasi situasi ini. Saya mabuk dan saya tidak ingat bagaimana saya kembali ke hotel. Saya pikir [Visconti] sedang menguji saya untuk melihat apakah saya gay."
