Taped Theater Talk last night and started watching it a little bit ago. Even though it was a repeat from last year, I left the tape running. They were talking about last season and Michael Reidel had on Howard Kissell and Jacques Lesourd, I think his name was, and John Simon. They started talking about The Normal Heart and Jacques said he preferred Brad Davis from the original and John Simon disagreed saying that Brad was good, but he thought Raul was wonderful and one of the best actors we have these days and Jacques said he thought he was one of the worst!! He said he finds he flinches and you can't have these allergies to people. What he did in Taboo was outrageously bad. Howard said well that was a silly thing. He said Raul was a courageous, daring actor. John Simon mentioned The Kennedy Center shows that Raul did and how wonderful he was in both of them. Then Michael turned to Jacques and said that he (Jacques) hated The Normal Heart. Jacques said that hate might be too strong a word. He didn't like The Normal Heart 20 years ago and likes it less this time around. Kinda sounds like hate to me. Then there was a discussion of The Normal Heart amongst them and John Simon thought the fact that Raul was such a charming actor, it made the rant much more easy to take. Jacques said he didn't tear up at all. Then he said he was sure Raul would be back next year. Wonder if he saw Chitty.
