Grease & Hair Film Questions

I remember reading somewhere on the board before that Danny's falsetto bits were dubbed by Frankie Valli in the movie. Is that true?

I'm also curious to know if Treat Williams really sang the high note at the end of I Got Life in Hair.

I have never heard either of those rumors, but I would be interested to find out a well.

Though I believe HAIR was all Treat Williams. I could be wrong.

Now see, Munk, I would say that Treat Williams is all hair.

Anything all Treat Williams is fine by me.

He was so damn gorgeous in HAIR, eyebrows and afro and all...

Sleeper's post on this page is where I read the part about Frankie Valli and Grease.

Was his chest shaved in HAIR?

I don't think so.

He's always done it for me, too.

I liked him as the prince in Shelley Duvalls Faerie Tale Theatre production of THE LITTLE MERMAID. Of course, when I was little I had no idea who he was, only that I had the hots for him. I don't think I've seen him in anything else.

BTW: Thanks for the pics!

He's terrific in The Ritz, Prince of the City, and Smooth Talk.

I think he'd be excellent as Jean Valjean in Les Mis.

I think we've derailed the topic. MrMidwest, maybe you should change the title to "The Treat Williams Appreciation Thread."

I'm sorry. I just can't control myself.

The first time I saw the HAIR film and he takes his clothes off, I about died. Then I rewound it, and died again.

"I just can't control myself."

Don't try.

Anyway, Treat played Danny in Grease on Broadway so I guess he would've had to sing the falsetto parts in that, right? If so, then I assume it was all his voice in Hair.

And all of him too, apparently!

Did anyone see Treat in Pirates of Penzance? I bet he was sexy as hell in that.
