Heh-heh... where'd you get that? B)


Just an image search for Anatole Taubman...once you get past the standard QOS stills, you get to the good stuff!

You know, great thread, because I think the key to Elivs IS that he's supposed to be a comedic character. A brilliant idea to use the henchman in this way.

Shame no one explained this to the director. :tdown:


Well according to Taubman, it was Forster who suggested the oddball haircut, so he had to be somewhat on board with Elvis being a comedy character.


Kewl I love the way he does a lot of acting in the background its really understaed stuff

Yeah… I’m not sure where you’re coming from, Zencat. I think there’s a fine level of precision to the direction when it comes to Elvis. If you’re suggesting that Forster went too lightly with his use of the anti-character, I’d have to protest and say the mistake would have been to go too hard and upfront. I certainly cannot imagine he came to be by an accident on Forster’s part. In fact, of all the characters in QOS, I daresay Elvis’ is Forster’s best-handled.

There’s a fine line between madness and genius, Harmy. A line which Elvis himself walks.

And the two look the same to those who know neither. B)

Very glad to see you stopping by the thread for a peek, though. It means you aren’t completely lost to us yet. :tdown:

Elvis is stepping up his game. First Bond blew his pants off. Now Elvis will take on...Captain America! Yup, under his pseudonym "Anatole Taubman", Elvis will be playing a character named "Roeder" in the forthcoming Marvel epic. No word yet if any bizarre haircuts, fashion choices, or apples are involved.
