Rush is a huge fan of Nero Wolfe books. In fact, he wanted to play him.
“he wanted to play him.”
Hmmmmm, I gotta think about that one.
I don’t know how good an actor Rush might be, if he’s an acting genius of course he could pull it off.
Otherwise I have to say I think Rush is just too mid-western to really play Mr. Wolfe.
To me the great tragedy is that Victor Buono never played him. When I first read the Nero Wolfe books I thought of him immediately, sadly he was already long gone.
Thanks for posting this thread, may this fine man rest in peace. I think I remember him best from that short-lived lawyer show, which was good, but the name eludes me. It had that bald guy in it too.
too lazy to imdb, maybe later!
