Congrats to my good buddy Steve Stoliar. Steve's the fellow who worked as Groucho Marx's assistant in the last few years of the great comedian's life. This placed Steve in the midst of the squabbles and controversy about Erin Fleming, whose role in Groucho's life is hard to explain and harder to assess. Steve wrote a book about those years and it is, as the saying goes, Soon To Be A Major Motion Picture.
Geoffrey Rush will play Groucho, Sienna Miller will play Erin, Charlie Plummer will play Steve and a good third of the Internet is already reviewing it, even though not a frame of film has yet been shot. Give it a break, people. More details here…and if you haven't read Steve's book, you should. Order a copy here.
