Default My favorite actor......



This is a joke in more ways than the obvious (non) acting.

Cueball attempts to dance and sing. Shatner did it better.

Of course it was good. Shakespeare is his main thing.

Hilarious use of it in the plot and script, though.

The bit with Patrick singing to Gene Roddenberry was so funny! You don't get to see him break character very often, but when he does....

Patrick also appeared in a film called Jeffrey, where he "plays gay" and shows quite a bit of exuberance while doing it. I watched the film and kept thinking of Captain Picard with all his relatively stoic demeanor and marvelling at the stark departure from it:



I mean, we all know that Patrick is great at the Shakespeare thing because that's part of his training, but the versatility and variety of his roles does such an excellent job of showing that talent off.

Bryan, that's hilarious. Exuberance is the perfect descriptor. I love the pink panther runway walk part.

I found another clip - it's of a game show "dream" sequence. It's got some funny Patrick bits in it too:



The movie itself is a bit of a romp and played very much tongue in cheek, but Patrick does have a really good emotional scene near the end of his film, but I couldn't find it. It was one of those scenes where Patrick sways from being all teary eyed to angry and then back again. It was a terrific scene and one that captures Patrick's dramatic skills very effectively.

Removed by request.

If you wish to see Patrick Stewart in the movie "Jeffrey", PM me and I will supply location information.

The film is funny because of Cueball's "acting".

Exclamation Re: My favorite actor......

Damocles,

If you know that what you're about to post is NOT family-friendly and if you know that the site has guidelines about content being family-friendly then, why are you posting it?

My suggestion would be to post it somewhere else and "redirect" those interested in seeing it, by email. Also, please delete the posts beginning with "post 1 of 9" that are NOT family friendly.

Thanks in advance,

BST

Cueball blames his bad acting (by implication) on the wheelchair. I kid you not!

I like Ed Wood for the unintended comedy, AJ. At least Adam West when he does his shtick, he knows we know he knows. Stewart walks on clueless as to the side comedy he generates.
