Similar vein, and very good stuff IMHO.Gerardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02666492320111518039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38548109.post-19203981078904514682011-04-24T20:54:37.793+01:002011-04-24T20:54:37.793+01:00David said ....Thank you so much for this.

It was a very well written and acted piece, of course, but the writer's story (waiting until the Queen Mum was dead to write, having a stammer himself and so on) was regularly trotted out. Colin Firth's story - something to do with a sister who was a speech therapist and of course Tom Hooper's mum all had a part to play. Maybe all these stories help place the success of a project as almost inevitable in the mind of the audience? If all those other narratives exist, then the success of the piece is therefore in the stars. And of course the Weinstein's are brilliant at finding and putting out the story of the film themselves.Nigelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09252766855035438100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38548109.post-4819547385302976902011-04-22T10:34:18.358+01:002011-04-22T10:34:18.358+01:00"...a fistful of coat-tail..."
