I actually got to see it again last night (SOTV, that is, not Vatel),
with a friend who contacted me and bemoaned the fact that it had
vanished from the theatres, so it became a matter of honor to find one
still showing it. Perhaps with the Oscar nominations, "Vatel" will be back.

Upon consideration, I think my favorite is, "Max... please!!! The German
stage neeeeeds you!!!" (Spoken after writer and producer, sitting at a
campfire with a bottle of slivovitz, are joined by the man they believe
to be a Stanislavski method actor, who calmly snatches a bat out of the
air, opens it like a beer bottle, and drinks it.)

Adamantius, sure that the real Alfred Abel, a.k.a. Max Schreck, was a
perfectly nice man
