Yes, Bree, Stephan woked on that one, too. His arm appears in one scene as an extra -- the one in which Robin Williams' brother, played by the ever-drano-voice Harvey Fierstein, helps him try on different "looks"; that whole scene was ad-libbed -- they let Stephan go crazy with the makeup, following up suggestions by Williams, Fierstein and Stephan himself. Stephan says he's never laughed so much on a set in his life. Stephan reports that Williams also adlibbed all those scenes in which he put on different voices, playing horrible applicants calling up Sally fields, applying for the position as their kids' nanny. Right now, btw, Stephan is working with the ever-swooney George Clooney, who's directing his first movie. Most of the shooting has been up in Toronto, but the last two weeks will be done on a lot in L.A. -- Stephan's hoping he can make a two-day pit stop here sometime in late March on his way down there; and he promised me & Robert that if we could make our way down to L.A. (Stephan *loves* Disneyland), he'd *try* to get us a brief "hello" meeting with George himself. Yikes! Sadly, that's looking unlikely, given the mess we're in, do to evil family members (Robert's, not mine) and even more evil lawyers. (Define rapacious: calling someone up to scream at them because their elderly mother refused to sign a paper, blame the elderly mother, and then bill for the phone call. See: Lawyer hired by R's evil sister. But I'd better stop there.) I would say that I envied Stephan's life, but he works ungodly hours under sometimes hideous conditions; he's had the flu twice up in Toronto. Still, the money ain't too bad, and he gets to touch people like George Clooney! Best, Walt
