	Movie Info for Out of the Closet, Off the Screen: The William Haines Story on MSN Movies
		While all but forgotten today, between 1926 and 1935, William Haines was one of the biggest stars in Hollywood, an affable leading man with cocky charm and a self-depreciating comic touch.
		Haines enjoyed his first major hit with the collegiate football comedy Brown of Harvard, and several years later he was one of the few silent stars who effectively made the transition to talking pictures.
		Hollywood legend has it when executives at MGM told Haines he had the option of either agreeing to an arranged marriage with an actress or never working for the studio again, Haines chose the latter; the result was he never appeared in another film.

	WILLIAM HAINES: A Fansite
		And Billy Haines' comic sense of timing, along with capable MGM directors such as Jack Conway and Edward Sedgwick, respectively, is still as witty and funny and dare I say, charming, in 2005 as it was in 1926 and 1928.
		The dialogue is still sharp, crisp and genuinely good-humoured as Billy Haines humour never relies on slapstick or physical comedy, as much as it does in what is commonly called the "wisecrack", the off-the-cuff remark, the sharply acidic tongue.
		I often wonder what Billy Haines would think of all the films of his that are now available on video format, the IMDB, articles and photos of him, and websites dedicated to him, including the one published currently by yours truly.

		The author is a bit defensive, because Billy Haines was a mediocre actor in mediocre films, and the exemplariness of his life is not above question.
		Those who knew Haines describe him as "courageous" for refusing to play the Hollywood sham-marriage game, instead living openly for almost 50 years with his partner, Jimmie Shields.
		Did Haines make a stand for love by letting his film career fall apart rather than giving up Jimmie, was he squeezed out by an increasingly conservative Hollywood, or did he just find interior design a more fulfilling career?
