*cackles* To celebrate, I’m watching Moulin Rouge. Hee, I’m so amused. I’m always too wrapped up in LotR to be able to giggle at David Wenham for portraying both Faramir and MR’s Audrey, but now, I’m giggling my head off, imagining our favourite Gondorian captain in delicious drag.
I wonder if Peter Jackson only allowed himself to cast actors who had appeared in drag in previous theatrical exploits. We have Elrond in Priscilla: Queen of the Desert, and Merry dressing as a woman in an episode of Hetty Wainthropp Investigates [EDIT: Apparently, brandyhall.net doesn’t allow direct-linking! For shame! See them for yourself here under Episode 6: Safe as Houses] (why do ALL MEN have better legs than me?), and Pippin… well, I have no idea what Billy is up to here and I’m not going to guess, but he’s wearing a wig, and he’s probably wearing a kilt, and that’s good enough for me. And Legolas doesn’t count because in LotR, he always looks like a girl.
So yeah. Um… look at baby!Elijah! Actually, he’s nine here, but he looks four. And he still looks EXACTLY THE SAME.
Erm, yeah. That’s all I have to say about that. Carry on. *politely shoos you away*
