I don't remember how Kofed was, although I'm pretty sure she was terrific. My impression of the three Claires I saw (and I couldn't name any of them, except Johanna Day) were that they were all terrific in a tricky part. I don't recall a lot reinvention going on there, so I imagine they were all in the Day mold.
I never saw MEN IN TREES, so I never put together that Heche and Kofed had both been a part of PROOF.
I'm kind of surprised that Paltrow wasn't better. The part would seem to have been right up her alley. I was surprised that she didn't replace Heche, because that would have been a publicity bonanza ahead of making the film, but I also remember that the London production was not the same production we had in New York. I wonder if it would have been too difficult for her to fit her performance into the New York production.
I'm also very curious about the Hal of Richard Coyle, since I've been a fan of his since COUPLING.
I remember almost nothing about the film, but I'm positive that I must have seen it at some point. |
