Trump\Lonesome Rhodes
Watching Trump speak today, I could see a similarity between him and the folksy, average-talking-guy Lonesome. Do you think the reason Face In The Crowd did not come to fruition is political?
It is better to keep your mouth closed and let people think that you are a fool than to open it and remove all doubt

Re: Trump\Lonesome Rhodes
When he spoke about A Face In The Crowd, EC has always avoided to compare Trump with Lonesome Rhodes: http://www.elviscostellofans.com/phpBB3 ... p#p7734822
He spoke about AFITC in Steve’s Immobile Tour: http://www.elviscostellofans.com/phpBB3 ... 6#p7745171

Since you put me down, it seems i've been very gloomy. You may laugh but pretty girls look right through me.
Re: Trump\Lonesome Rhodes
My hunch is no. I suspect the reason Face in the Crowd did not come to fruition is that, in the whole world of music, media and popular entertainment, arguably the most difficult, expensive and time-consuming thing to do is to get a stage musical off the ground and into theatres. You'd think EC would have learned his lesson from The Secret Songs.ice nine wrote:Watching Trump speak today, I could see a similarity between him and the folksy, average-talking-guy Lonesome.

On the contrary, my hunch is that pre-COVID the plan was for it to reach the stage pre-election but who knows??
I too am a limited, primitive kind of man
