I'm thrilled for her. I think she'll be great in the part. Woody Allen and his team are more than familiar with Patti and Bernie and Betty and their talents. I think he trod them out to audition for curiosity. It is better not to have an actress with a known "personality" in the part. An established Diva (in the public mind) would just come across as themselves in the part. MM will be a blank slate with fresher chances at humor and pathos. I am a little worried about whether Stroman can direct this kind of humor. The laughs in BOB are very, very different from those in The Producers.
