There's a book I read by the actor Charles Grodin
"It would be so nice if you weren't here"
Worked for me on a number of levels. A bio of sorts.
But specifilly they had rented one of those English mansions to shoot this
movie... The people who own them rent then out and only live in a part of
them all the money is long gone. So anyway he's sitting on a bench in
hallway with Candace Bergen and the real lady of the house approaches them
and says:
"It would be so nice if you weren't here"
And you know she meant it in the best of ways.
Not as an insult of course. Its just some things are just inconvenient and
some of those things are people.
