More on the moustache
While I noticed the electrical tape moustache on Michael on Sunday, he wrote to tell me that is only part of the story:
"We did go with the tape at the beginning, and for a moment at the end, but actually after Anil sticks it on my face, I duck behind the trunk, tear it off and replace it with the black greasepaint makeup, also painting on the eyebrows. It’s a real pain to try to wash off (especially out of the eyebrows) but Doug (Zeppo) insisted I was cheating the audience if I just used tape at the end, because it just didn’t look as good. Ah, what we do for our "art" huh?"
Yes, indeed.
