Roddy McDowall did not have the looks or the voice to be a major star. The best he could have hoped for was steady work as a character actor--which he received. His being gay, or rumors of his being gay, had nothing to do with him NOT becoming a major star.

I'm utterly baffled--I have no idea what point you're trying to make--since you restate my own thesis, but word things as though we're arguing about all this.
