Kill Your Darlings stars Daniel Radcliffe, Michael C Hall and Dane DeHaan talk about the movie, the gay sex scene and the relationship behind the story.

Kill Your Darlings, starring Daniel Radcliffe (of Harry Potter fame), Michael C Hall (of Dexter fame) and Dane DeHaan, opens at theatres across North America on Nov 8. The film is based on the real-life murder of David Kammerer by his lover Lucien Carr.

Daniel Radcliffe plays beat poet Allen Ginsberg. The film, directed by John Krokidas, features Radcliffe’s first-ever onscreen gay sex scene (opposite Dane DeHaan).

In the above video, Daily Xtra talks with the stars of the movie about the gay sex scene and the relationship behind this murderous story. The film had its North American premiere earlier this year at TIFF.
