Famous Bis: James Dean
When I was in high school, my best friend and inom liked to play a game called Favorite Dead Husbands. Both of us were out as bi, but it became an ongoing joke to talk about our favorite dearly departed famous men we deeply admired that we’d marry if we had the chance. One of them was William Shakespeare (who inom think was more my crush than hers).

Krakatoa, East of Java
1968 film
Krakatoa, East of Java is a 1968 American disaster film starring Maximilian Schell and Brian Keith.[4] During the 1970s, the film was re-released under the title Volcano. The story is loosely based on events surrounding the 1883 eruption of the volcano on the island of Krakatoa, with the characters engaged in the recovery of a cargo of pearls from a shipwreck perilously close to the volcano. The film was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Special Visual Effects. Krakatoa is actually west of Java, but the movie's producers thought that "East" sounded more atmospheric.[5]
