Robert Altman's DR. T & THE WOMEN (aka Mornings With Dr T)
All right, well on down the list of today's stories I take some pot shots at a Richard Gere project, so I guess I ought to show no hard feelings and voice support of another Richard Gere project. Namely... The upcoming Robert Altman movie DR. T & THE WOMEN. That should win an award for coolest title around. Now, knowing my Seuss, I know Dr T had 5000 fingers, so how many women are in this film?
Actually Seuss has nothing (that I know of) to do with this movie which is instead about a Texas gynecologist, played by Richard Gere, who is a bit... eccentric with his clients(/women of his life) on his daughter's wedding day. His daughter is being played by Claire Danes... while the multitudes of women look to count Liv Tyler, Cate Blanchett, Judy Davis and Shelly Long amongst their ranks. Now that's a cool and typically Altman cast of women. Now if he could also find room for Jennifer Jason Leigh, Lili Taylor and Julianne Moore then we'd really be having a super duper cast! But as is... Man... I can't wait. This independent production looks to be set for either summer to fall release of 2000. So let's keep an ear out for goings ons with this one. We film geeks have to follow what ol Altman is up to!
