If you could cast Rupert Lowe in a film


Recommended Posts

Colonel Kurtz from Apocalypse Now, with Willard played by Wilde, as this quote demonstrates:

 

Lowe: Did they say why, Wilde, why they want to terminate my command?

Wilde: I was sent on a classified mission, sir.

Lowe:: It's no longer classified, is it? Did they tell you?

Wilde: They told me that you had gone totally insane, and that your methods were unsound.

Lowe:: Are my methods unsound?

Wilde: I don't see any method at all, sir.

For those with longer memories, a couple of seafaring types: Captain Queeg in 'The Caine Mutiny' (originally played by Humphrey Bogart) or Captain Ahab in 'Moby ****' (I think there's a film in which Gregory Peck plays Ahab, but I could be mistaken). Or maybe Don Quixote, with Wilde (or perhaps Cowen) playing Sancho Panza?

 

Liked the Kurtz and Mainwaring ideas!

Kaiser Soze from The Usual Suspects

 

A demonic hate-filled figure collects together a rag-tag bunch of no-goods and sends them on a mission that he knows will see them meet their end.

 

Sound familiar?

Gets my vote.

 

I can just see him hugging and stroking his chair in the boardroom whilst mumbling, 'My Precious, We loves you My Precious.'
