Title: Am I THAT Blind?
Post by: Patti Feinberg on May 14, 2012, 03:40:21 PM

I thought it had been mentioned on these boards that most of the 'principals' from our original series had a cameo(s) in the new pic.
I saw it last night, but I don't remember seeing anyone from original series....
Could someone help me clarify?
Thanks,
Patti

They are shown arriving at the party. I think we see Parker, Scott, and Selby dancing later too.

Yes, there are a couple of additional shots of Parker, KLS and Selby.  I think they're also standing behind someone (Liz, maybe?) during a small bit of dialogue.  Their cameos were all too brief; wish a line or two could've been added for each of them.  But I am so glad they got to be in it!

They say that if you looked down at your popcorn at the one moment, you would've missed it.

Patti, if you haven't done so, you have to read Lara Parker's short thing about doing the movie in London with Jonathan.  I get tears in my eyes now thinking about it.

I'd post the link here but I'm not sure now just where it is.

Glad to hear you had a good time at the movies.

I saw Selby at the door and that was it.  This sort of thing is what sells DVDs.

Johnny's Barnabas greeted Jonathan, David, Kathryn and Lara at the door at the Collinwood party. A couple minutes later on we see David, Lara and Kathryn in a shot with Michelle Pfeiffer.

Yes, you pretty much have to keep your eye out to be able to catch them, they are easy to miss. Still I am grateful to have seen them at all, though I wish the writers would have given each of them just one little bitty piece of dialogue.

Well, David did say their appearance was a bit like Where's Waldo. I didn't realize how right he was! I wonder if there were other bits that ended up on the cutting room floor.

Yup, they were greeted at the door during the "happening" (don't forget, people in '72 didn't have "balls" anymore).  TLATKLS says something like:  "Thank you for inviting us."  All four are there; it's brief.  Then you see TLATKLS, Lara and David, as has been mentioned, standing behind Elizabeth a bit later.
