Just got this news in from Professor Jordan, who was missing part of his pinkie so his use of semi-colons is lacking. Has to do with a film being made on the other side of the pond with an interesting as hell cast. The project is called SWING, let's keep our eye on it...
SWING
UR first to know as Tapestry, the production company, are keeping this under wraps for now. Film scheduled for production Jan 26th, 1998.
ICM London describes it as Full Monty meets the Commitments. Lisa Stansfield has been cast in her first acting role to play a singer in a Liverpool swing band. Other cast are Jimmy Nail (Evita) and Alan Bates with an offer out to Full Monty star, Robert Carlyle, to play the lead.
Clarence Clemons will supply the saxophone leads. This will be the ultimate sax movie says writer/director Nick Mead.
