Not the movie(s) but a play he did, raising money for something I never asked about. He and his friends hold about 2-3 plays a year on a volunteer basis the first was a play by Terry Prachet I think which was some kind of combination of Hamlet, MacBeth and soemthing else.
And so his second play is Earnest, I found it cleverer and funnier then the first one. The conversation with their cynical satyr were encredible (like "make love to your wife if she's pretty and someone else's if she's plain").
The verbal sparring matches between Algermon and Ernest I've found to be brillient and the ending once it started underway slightly predictable (but that's me I can 75% of the time predict the ending).
A good see if you live somewhere in the Hudson, Montreal West, Quebec, Canada area.

It's really a great play. I can always tell when someone has read/seen it because they can pronounce my name correctly on their first read. Either that, or they'll smile knowingly at me when I tell them my name. (My name is Cecily, for those of you who don't know.)
It's funny, but I don't think either of my parents has read or seen the play! They got the name from somewhere else. And I have to admit that when I read the play for the first time I said to myself "Gwendolyn and Cecily? Like that pair of girls in the Odd Couple?" Posts: 6415 | Registered: Jul 2000
