    LAMB Casting: Taxi Driver

    Andrew here, yup it’s Christmas and whatnot and you’re probably trying to get into the festive mood. Before you commit to that, though, it’s time for the next episode of LAMB Casting and we’re going dark with Martin Scorsese’s Taxi Driver. It’s a gritty one, and I’m particularly interested to see how the casting works out. Ostensibly any re-casting of this will live and die by its...

    Andrew here. Hold back your angry diatribes, this past month has just been horrendously busy hence the extreme lateness in the results for LAMB Casting. But, fear no more, the results are here. Before we go there, let’s just take a look at the four options that came in for recasting the Oscar winning 1967 piece which is a significant part of cinematic history for Stanley Kramer, Katharine Hepburn, Sidney Poitier and Spencer Tracy.

    LAMB Casting: Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner?

    Andrew here, with another film to cast for LAMB Casting. I decided I’d opt for a film with the lovely Katharine Hepburn who readers of my blog would know that I adore. We’ve been casting a number of youthful roles recently, so we’re turning to the mature this time re-casting the seven principals of the film (four of whom were Oscar nominated).

    So, it’s your job to recast the following:

    Interview with a LAMBpire: Anna of Defiant Success

    Andrew here to shine a light on another one of our LAMBs, this time Anna of Defiant Success who won the last episode of LAMB Casting. On with the questions…
                     
    Andrew: You casted Carey in the Audrey Hepburn role and back when she did An Education there was much hubbub to her being the next Audrey. Do you think publicity like this boxes a contemporary in, or do you think...

    LAMB Casting: Sabrina (VOTING TIME)

    Andrew here. Am I late with this? I never know if I’m going or coming really, but I’m here with the options for you to vote and this month we’re recasting the Billy Wilder classic Sabrina. I’d have a lot of money if I had a dollar for every time us bloggers bitch about terrible romantic comedies, so think of this as a way for you to make your own romantic comedy – mixing and matching. We’ve...
