On Saturday night, Lauren & Erin and I went to hear Jason Schwartzman talk about his life and career. It was so interesting. During it he talked about the filming of Marie Antoinette and how they used to film at Versailles when it was open, so lots of tourists would be around.
One day Jason was away from the set sitting underneath a tree, in his full King costume, listening to music and preparing for a scene. He saw a group of tourists looking at him, quite confused. He then proceeded to get up, make his face look completely blank, and walk straight past the tourists - brushing shoulders with them - and then walking straight into the woods. Never turning around.
I’m totally butchering this story, but it was HILARIOUS.
Just because it’s Monday morning, I was talking about this video yesterday, and it makes me laugh.
“Cribs w/ Louis XVI” à la Jason Schwartzman
