Friday (er, Saturday) Flashback: Rec. #293 (abbrev.): Noises Off

I decided to start doing Friday Flashbacks in case you missed some early posts the first time around. You're busy; I understand.



What: Michael Frayn stage play turned Peter Bogdanovich movie, classic slamming-doors-farce about a classic-slamming-doors farce, Christopher Reeve, director, final rehearsals, Michael Caine, doors, opening night, affairs, Carol Burnett, fading star, missed cues, backstage, on tour, Marilu Henner, contact lenses, John Ritter, sardines, oh god the sardines

Representative dialogue:
"I'm starting to know what God felt like when he sat out there in the darkness, creating the world."
"And what did he feel like, Lloyd my dear?"
"Very pleased he'd taken his Valium."

How to get it: Buy it or borrow it.
