I'm cishet and not afraid to say Burt was one handsome man. They don't make mustaches like that anymore.

His left arm even seems to suggest his hand is between his knees

This is actually a crop of a famous photo. In the full photo he is nude, with his left hand between his knees and his forearm just covering his privates.

Ah, see, im too ace to remember the whole spread XD what a photo though! Look at how the light softens as it guides the eye down his legs. Remarkable.

It's not just a crop, it's had the cigarette removed. The cigarette with the ash he's about to have to move his hand to knock off into the ashtray there. Giving the shot a positively Hitchcockian level of suspense.

I didn't notice that! I wonder who originally made that edit, and when. Google image search comes up with both versions from multiple sources.
