The Diary of a Nobody (BBC, 1964)

"In the evening, Cummings unexpectedly dropped in to show me a meerschaum pipe he had won in a raffle in the city and told me to handle it carefully, as it would spoil the colouring if the hand was moist. He said he would not stay, as he did not care much for the smell of paint, and fell over the scraper as he went out. Must get the scraper removed - or else I shall get into a scrape. I don't often make jokes."

In your opinion, which TAZ character would be funniest if put into BG3?

speaking strictly on taz balance. lup would objectively be the coolest (im biased but also correct)

but also putting in garfield the deals warlock or pringles would be SO damn funny to me.

maybe a cameo to magic brian and spider bryan (im biased again) bc it would be so funny to hear the rumor of "one of the most accomplished, powerful wizards" (as quoted by killian) and then you get to him and just. yea.

#adrien replies #id get a kick out of it anyways HGJKDFG #also anon i just want u to know that im suffering in coursework rn but this question made me laugh sm

Christopher Gable and Twiggy in The Boy Friend (Ken Russell, 1971)

Cast: Twiggy, Christopher Gable, Max Adrian, Bryan Pringle, Murray Melvin, Moyra Fraser, Georgina Hale, Sally Bryant, Vladek Sheybal, Tommy Tune, Brian Murphy, Graham Armitage, Antonia Ellis, Caryl Little, Glenda Jackson. Screenplay: Ken Russell, based on a musical play by Sandy Wilson. Cinematography: David Watkin. Production design: Tony Walton. Costume design: Shirley Russell. Music: Peter Maxwell Davies; songs: Sandy Wilson, Nacio Herb Brown, Arthur Freed.

Nothing succeeds like excess. That seems to have been Ken Russell's motto, well displayed in The Boy Friend. As I watched it, I thought the first parody of Busby Berkeley's kaleidoscopic production numbers for Warner Bros. musicals was brilliant. The second was entertaining. The third was ... well, maybe the law of diminishing returns had set in. The original stage musical was a campy sendup of the kind of musical comedies that P.G. Wodehouse, Guy Bolton, and Jerome Kern used to create for the Princess Theatre and later in the 1920s: tuneful light romances with silly plots. But for the movie, Russell superadds a campy sendup of the backstage movie musicals of the 1930s, borrowing plot and even dialogue from 42nd Street (Lloyd Bacon, 1933), hence the Berkeley parodies. I first saw The Boy Friend around the time of its first release, and enjoyed it. But watching it again now, I found myself looking at the clock after the first hour and a half passed. The version I had seen in the theater was the one MGM had cut by 25 minutes; the restored version runs an exhausting two hours and 17 minutes. That said, there is much to enjoy about Russell's movie, especially the vividly colored production design by Tony Walton and costumes by Shirley Russell (the director's wife). The presence of the great Tommy Tune in the cast is also a plus. The Sandy Wilson songs are pleasantly hummable, and the interpolation of two songs by Nacio Herb Brown and Arthur Freed that were featured in Singin' in the Rain (Stanley Donen and Gene Kelly, 1952) is nice. But a little camp goes a long way, and piling camp on camp can be tiresome, especially if the camp is done the way Russell does it: with a smirk rather than a wink.

Peter O'Toole

Lawrence of Arabia (1962) / still * caption: For "Lawrence of Arabia," a Columbia film, he had to learn to ride a camel and before the film was finished he had ridden about 5, 000 miles!

https://myfavoritepeterotoole.tumblr.com/post/711693724405661696/peter-otoole-lawrence-of-arabia-1962

* article: "If I'm going to play Lawrence, I've got to ride like him," O'Toole said. By that time the film was finished he had spent over 1,000 hours on a camel's back and covered some 5,000 miles. Of his acting career he says; "I love films. I love the stage. I love acting. I know I'm only a beginner still, and that you go on learning whole time. It's the life for me."

The Long and the Short and the Tall photo by John Cowan * caption: STAGE This was Peter as Private Bamforth in the play " The Long and the Short and the Tall" produced at London's Royal Court Theatre. His acting in this part, said the critics, had real "star quality."

The Day They Robbed the Bank of England (1960) * caption: SCREEN A producer was looking for someone to take the part of Lawrence of Arabia in the film, and when he saw Peter O'Toole as the young Guards officer in "The Day They Robbed the Bank of England" he knew that here was the man to do it.
