Can a lady of intimacy
who works at the
highest level
survive?
Thrive? Stay alive?
Linda
is an irresistible courtesan, with dignity,
business sense and—what
shall we call it—
class. Superior
to every circumstance.
For
sale but out of reach.
She's so beautiful, so refined, so aloof,
that her clients fall in love with her.
Who can blame them?
Her
passion for independence only inflames them—presidents and kings want to
divorce their wives and marry her!—but she is resolutely
herself.
Professional
cool is the secret of her success, and the allure that enslaves powerful men.
An infinitely extendable series of 45-minute episodes.
The news, as it were, behind The News,
keeping pace with events.
Sort of The Crown, but American-style—
i.e. funny.
A tripod-mounted spinning machine gun
of political satire, as Saturday
Night Live once was, lo
these many years.
Inspired by Ernst Lubitsch.
Robert MacLean is a bad poet and an independent filmmaker. His The Light Touch is on Amazon Prime, Tubi and Scanbox, and his 7-minute comedy is an out-loud laugh. He is also a screamingly funny novelist, a playwright, a blogger, a YouTuber, a reviewer of films, a literary critic, and a stand-up comic poet. Born Toronto, PhD McGill, taught at Canadian universities, too cold, live Greece, Irish citizen. Committed to making movies that don't matter. No brains, but an intellectual snob.
