Subject: Re: Honk, snif! Author: Cinéphilia [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 15:49:05 03/01/02 Fri In reply to: Jennifer 's message, "Honk, snif!" on 13:58:26 03/01/02 Fri Is Molière known in the English theatre world at all? He wrote a lot of fine comedies starring or featuring interesting older men. Sigh... If he wanted a hit... Maybe he should have starred in a musical comedy based on Star Trek. He could have played one of the major alien roles! A French movie that I would love to see remade in England: "Les Grands Ducs". The original, starring French screen legends Jean Rochefort, Philippe Noiret and Jean-Pierre Marielle, was hilarious. The plot: three old pals, all of them no-name, no-talent actors, go on tour with a tacky play. A great part of the fun was watching three exceptional actors play those losers and pretend that they had no talent at all on a stage (to make up for their utter lack of thespian ability, they hammed it out outrageously and without any flair). I can picture DW playing the part of the elegant lecher. His co-stars could be John Hurt and Ian Holm. [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]

Yes, but it seems Moliere is sort of a second tier repertory writer. That would have been a great idea! I think the live action Star Trek is exclusive to that same hotel in Vegas that committed to Starlight Express for seven years - the Hilton? (I'd call it the Hellton, if so...)
