I don't remember that Williams--his talent was mainly as a songwriter, right? As opposed to singer or TV personality.

One of the takes--four or five, I lost count--was perfect. I hope they used it. I can't work with this material because those posts on my page convinced me that originality is the way to go.

As for Williams, I forgot about his film career. I have a soft spot for his first role as the boy rocket scientist in The Loved One, featuring a Terry Southern script. Jonathan Winters as the Blessed Reverend: "Russia may brainwash; China may educate; but America BREEDS its genius."

I guess I was wondering, what was PW's rep in Tinseltown, mainly? It was that he was a tunesmith, right?

Phantom of the Paradise
It was the '70's, ok?
If this had hit he could have been Travolta and the Bee Gees all in one.

I am a huge de Palma fan and have managed never to see Phantom of the Paradise.

As I recall it's good/bad, he gets his head caught in a record press.
