Boxoffice March 1991 - Coverstory

















A great article by Marilyn Moss of which the main subject is John's upcoming movie 'Delirious'. In the first passage of this article Mrs. Moss refers to John as "an evocation of Buster Keaton and a living homage to Charlie Chaplin". Some compliments! I guess this is also because later in the article John says that classic comedians like Buster Keaton, Laurel & Hardy and Charlie Chaplin are all inspirators who had their inspirators too.

John talks about being a romantic lead in his new movie 'Delirious' and working with Emma Samms and Mariel Hemingway and takes the opportunity to talk about his dramatic role in 'Only the Lonely'.

Also mentioned is his work on the Warner Bros. project 'The Reincarnation of Jonathan Smellon' aka 'Haulin' Ashes' in the capacity of writer, producer and performer. This is a project that fell through.

In this article John is asked what directors he would like to work with. One of the directors he named was Oliver Stone. He would work with him that same year for the movie 'JFK'.
