Kathryn Report post Posted December 15, 2005 Following on from the dramatic adaptation of Jacqui Jackson's life I'm wondering if the Beeb would be interested in making a film about my life too. As I have a husband and not very many children and not an amorous caretaker in sight, I'm wondering what would give it that bit of extra entertainment value. I though Emma Thompson could play me - she would bring just the right amount of depth and comedy to the role, and she's good box office material too. And my husband could be played by - this is fiction after all - Alan Rickman. Watch out for the "Terrific Two", coming to a screen near you. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

anxiousmom Report post Posted December 15, 2005 I'd love to say julia roberts... I wish! I'd have to go for helena bonem-carter (or what ever).... english looks and nutty as a fruit cake. Hubby would be a young charles danse... or bradd pitt (just cos I'd like to gt close to bradd you realise... no resemblence!) Son would be a young robbie williams (looks and humour/craziness) and daughter would be a much younger joan collins (DRAMA!!) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DaisyProudfoot Report post Posted December 15, 2005 Well, as there's seven of us and the Magnificent 7 has already been taken we could be The Seven Swans - to the outside world we look like we glide along, when underneath (as the neighbours will agree) were paddling along like hell! Jack Black could play my husband cos he looks a bit like him and he's cute ........ who would play me?...........I'd play myself of course My mother's always believed I was a drama queen.

~Jonathan~ Report post Posted December 15, 2005 Woody Allen for sure, I bought another of his films today from FOPP for �5. I love the guy. He would have to direct my life story and act in it in his inimitable way. The soundtrack would be great for sure Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
