Here's an excerpt from the article (from Towlerroad):

Robert: We always said no when Andy asked to film us having sex or pose naked. "You'll be famous," he always said. "You'll be a star. We'll make a movie."

Richard: There's one afternoon in 1979 I'll never forget. It was winter, and Andy's "Shadows" paintings were up. He, Rupert, Robert, and I went to lunch on Canal Street, and this short man came and joined us. After lunch, it felt like I'd had six drinks instead of one. I must have been drugged.

Robert: Me too.

Richard: We went to this loft with high windows.

Robert: It was all white and very sterile.

Richard: And there was a bed. Somebody started to unbutton my clothes. And there was a video camera there. The short man wanted Robert and me to do it together. Andy was watching.

Richard: I was like, What the hell? What's the scene, Dean? I said, "No! This is freaky!" And I just stormed out. Andy followed. Two blocks away, Andy went into a store and bought me a down coat from Japan.

Robert: He felt guilty and he bought us something.
