The first speech coach & the theater company spokesman who rejected Rush for Richard 3 Cannoli Send a noteboard - 15/02/2011 01:06:14 AM
Which ones did you spot from Rome?
The guy in the beginning who made Albert put marbles in his mouth was the guy in "Rome" whom Cicero and Mark Antony were bribing by offering a cash "birthday present" for his wife. When Rush's character was trying out for Richard III, the main guy who was rejecting his audition was played by David Bamber who played Cicero in "Rome" (as well as playing Hitler in "Valkyrie", IIRC).

Look at his signature; there's a hint as to why he'd have preferred a papist on the throne. Ghavrel - 08/02/2011 08:13:46 AM 827 Views
