Yes, the McKellen/Stewart production of Godot must've been spectacular - I'm a huge fan of both, too. :)
I really encourage you to go see Godot, if you can :D Or even reading it is pretty hectic (and fun!)..
I had not heard of 'THe Lady's not for Burning', but I will check it out soon - I love the theater of the absurd, it's so fascinating, while at the same time mind-boggling.
Wow, that is quite a recommendation. To be fair, I've never been a Branagh fan, so... As for Richard Chamberlain, I only think I've seen a few movies with him, sadly neither this nor 'The three musketeers', though I heard that was amazing. I've got to see that sometime :D
Maybe you caught him in a bad mood, in The Sound of Music? Happens...and if you say he was great in the others, then something else must've been the problem...:)
Thank you for taking the time to read and comment! :D
