Sue beautifully played her role in ‘Lolita’. Watch it if you haven’t yet. The film here and there can elicit a sense of exquisite discomfort (?) and schadenfreude worthy of David O. Russell. Kubrick so loved stressing out his characters.

She was a wonderful actress – see also the Flim-Flam Man – but her film career was cut short after she married an African-American and left the country; her high profile was a magnet for the racism of the day (the marriage would have been illegal 4 years earlier in many US states). She never got good roles after she returned to the US.
I have one of those, but to drive it you’d have to put in a new fuel pump first.

Bugger. Innes always was one of the good ones. And always underrated. I suppose his sense of humour prevented him from bullshitting his way to the very top, but his audience was better off for it.
Although, just for the record: in my ranking he is Python #8 - Python #7 is definitely Carol Cleveland.

Oh no… I knew he’d had a stroke a while back (and his death had previously been misreported).

Buck Henry also wrote the brilliant screenplay for The Owl and the Pussycat. A scene with George Segal’s character… wickedly hilarious.

Just think of all those pub bands thinking, “Tonight, let’s do a Rush song!”
“Yeah, a quick easy one.”
