This never happens . . .



An ad in yesterday's Times gave us an unexpected kick...(In today's ad, I've been replaced by something called "Ebert & Roeper"[sp?].)

Strangely, there's no grand mention that DeLillo's at all involved in the project—wouldn't that be a draw? For at least 30, 40 people?

Side note: Griffin Dunne is also excellent as a playwright gone bonkers, and Catherine O'Hara has a brilliant little laugh she deploys exactly once in her single short scene.

I bet they're the same person — "Hoff" and "Press" are structurally quite similar...

I can also imagine Joe Q. Public seeing the ad, clapping a beefy hand to forehead, and uttering to his mystified companion, "YES! I must see this! I've been waiting ages for a, what is it, 'gratifying playground of highwire language,' haven't YOU???!!"
