| I have heard rumors that there was talk of Luciano Pavarotti starring in a film version of HAPPY FELLA years ago, and when that didn't happen for whatever reason(s), he did YES, GIORGIO instead! There are debates as to whether Pavarotti was unable to read music (making learning a role that much more effortful for all) or was just incredibly lazy in learning new roles - or both - but I would bet that if Most Happy Fella was indeed in the planning stages, he just wasn't going to be able to learn the role in time. Plus, he wouldn't have had the right tessitura for Tony, and who else would he have played? Add onto that that acting was never his strongpoint, and I'm ultimately glad he didn't try it. Yes, Giorgio was embarrassing enough. ;-) |
