I’ve never thought of it before, but as my fellow reviewer CJ also noted, Jared Harris was excluded from ALL of the film’s promotional material… I know I got a face for radio, and that’s ok… sort of, I mean I was pretty when I was young… but… I’ve come to terms with it… still it would sting to be excluded when you’re the film’s male lead… however, it is indisputably funny to think about.
