Phantom of the Opera


I watched the Phantom of the Opera the other night and snorted at the pitiful Monkey Playing Cymbals that starred in the film (not the Phantom, the music box). He looks like a reject from the Wizard of Oz.

I of course turned the part down. Since that Stephen King movie I did years ago, I've been more picky about the parts I accept.

But I was impressed that, when looking for an Icon of sophistication and sensual mystery, Anthony Lloyd Webber chose a Monkey Playing Cymbals. Good choice Tony. A few more bucks and bananas and you could have had me and not the simian with the bad hairdoo.

And speaking of bad hairdoos, check out the ape at this site:
